What is Heart and Head: Black Theology : Past, Present, and Future about?

Dwight Hopkins has emerged over the last decade as one of the most prolific and insightful thinkers among the second generation of black theologians. Taking his cue from mentor and black theology founder James Cone, Hopkins has sought to clarify the relation between faith and the struggle for social justice. His books have always crackled with first-rate scholarship, and his arguments are always framed by a compelling logic. But what is especially appealing about Hopkins's lucid explanations of black religious belief is his grounding in the wit and wisdom of his forebears. Hopkins has never been afraid or ashamed to delve deeply into the folk genius of black culture, whether it surfaced in a slave narrative, a backwoods sermon, or the earthy eloquence of a community elder. Hopkins has helped to expand the intellectual gestures and scholarly impulses of first generation black theologians and religious thinkers-besides Cone, they include figures like Vincent Harding, XII HEART AND HEAD
