Evolutionary Biology with Prophetic Structure and Content

Abstract

ABSTRACT This descriptive, critical, and constructive review reveals that the structure and content of A Voice in the Wilderness: A Pioneering Biologist Explains How Evolution Can Help Us Solve Our Biggest Problems (2022) by Joseph L. Graves Jr. resembles the structure and content of Where Do We Go from Here: Chaos or Community? (1967) by Martin Luther King Jr. Accordingly, as advanced by Graves, and by his great predecessor – Ernest Everett Just, evolutionary biology is not incompatible with theology. And, as advanced by Anna Julia Cooper and others, black womanist theologians pioneered black theological appreciation for evolution and environmental justice.
