{"title":"Sisters in the “Hostile Environment”: A Womanist Theological Analysis of Brexit","authors":"Selina R. Stone","doi":"10.1080/14769948.2023.2255775","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/14769948.2023.2255775","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTThis article builds upon Anthony Reddie's Theologising Brexit by offering a womanist perspective in response to his postcolonial and liberationist critique. In keeping with the framing of Reddie's argument I begin with history, by drawing on feminist historians which demonstrate that British enslavement, colonialism and mission should be understood as gendered as well as racialised forms of oppression in Africa and the Caribbean. In the second section, I critique Britain's “hostile environment” policies and Brexit as continuations of Britain's White supremacist and masculinist colonial past by centring the experiences of the “Zambrano carers”: predominantly single Black mothers left destitute by the UK government, and Black and Brown Muslim women who have borne the brunt of Islamophobic violence. In the final section I look to Hagar in Delores Williams's Sisters in the Wilderness to theologise Brexit with these women who are marginalised and dehumanised in contemporary British society.KEYWORDS: TheologywomanismBrexitcolonialismpolitics Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 Reddie, Theologising Brexit.2 Thomas, “Womanist Theology, Epistemology”.3 Phillips, The Womanist Reader, xxiv.4 I take Stuart Hall’s definition post-colonial as: “an era when everything still takes place in the slipstream of colonialism and hence bears the inscription of the disturbances that colonisation set in motion,” Hall, The Fateful Triangle, 101.5 Williams, Sisters in the Wilderness.6 Reddie, Theologising Brexit, 67.7 Carby, “White Women Listen”, 223.8 Olupona, City of 201 Gods, 15, 106; Olajubu, Women in the Yoruba Religious Sphere, 22.9 Olajubu, Women in the Yoruba Religious Sphere, 24; Olupona, City of 201 Gods, 107, 208.10 Olupona, City of 201 Gods, 107.11 Federici, “Women, Land Struggles”.12 Allen, “Aba Riots or the Igbo Women's War?”.13 Ibid., 20.14 Ibid., 20.15 Ibid., 11, 12.16 Hastings, The Church in Africa, 1450–1950, 178.17 Ibid.18 Bhabha, The Location of Culture, 122.19 Hastings, The Church in Africa, 178.20 Anum, Mission in Chains, 73–5.21 Levecq, “Jacobus Capitein”, 160–1.22 Hastings, The Church in Africa, 177.23 For a discussion of the prohibition of marriage in America’s “slave codes” see DuCille, “Blacks of the Marrying Kind”, 25–9.24 DuCille, “Blacks of the Marrying Kind,” 41–3.25 Hastings, The Church in Africa, 198.26 Hall, White, Male and Middle Class, 157.27 Bhabha, The Location of Culture, 122.28 Hall, White, Male and Middle Class, 169.29 Home Office. “Derivative Rights of Residence – Ruiz Zambrano Cases”.30 Solanke, “The Impact of Brexit on Black Women,” 148.31 Solanke, “The Impact of Brexit on Black Women, Children and Citizenship,” 151.32 Ibid., 147.33 Hall, White, Male and Middle Class, 169.34 Solanke, “The Impact of Brexit,” 151.35 Cummings, “Ain’t no Black in the (Brexit) Union Jack?” 594.36 Meer, “Racialization and Religion,” 389.37 Kundnani, The End of Tolerance, 128.38 Awan and Zem","PeriodicalId":42729,"journal":{"name":"BLACK THEOLOGY","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136293474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In replacing older models of personnel management, HRM has achieved a position of dominance that raises important pastoral and ethical questions about recognition of the personhood of workers. This article contends that because critical work on HRM within the social sciences has failed to fully engage with these fundamental questions, a turn to Black theological anthropology is invaluable in understanding the ethico-political implications of HRM. Arguing that lived experiences of “the worker” are commonly missing from theological reflection on work, it advocates the interdisciplinary use of empirical research methods from the social sciences to populate the theology of work with real workers.","PeriodicalId":42729,"journal":{"name":"BLACK THEOLOGY","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135743911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Malinda Morris was a central, though forgotten, figure in William Crowdy’s Church of God and Saints of Christ but her creation of an independent Church upon Crowdy’s death has not so far been discussed. The strongest body of evidence regarding this Church is a booklet published by one of their Bishops, A.W. Cook, in Harlem, 1925. This booklet offers biographical, legal, constitutional, and theological information about Cook and his branch of Morris’ Church. Situated at a crucial juncture, at the beginning of the second wave of Hebrew Israelite preachers and congregations, Cook’s booklet offers some important insights into the development of foundational narratives of the movement, as well as allows us to reconstruct some of the life of this forlorn thinker and minister, and his leader Malinda Morris.","PeriodicalId":42729,"journal":{"name":"BLACK THEOLOGY","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135884347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the 1880s when Christianity arrived the southern part of Nigeria, there has been rivalry among the Christian denominations – from the struggle for territorial and numerical dominance, to antagonism in educational, political and social spheres. Sadly, this disunity has weakened Christianity as a force to check the excesses of the government and the lopsided policies that are not in the interest of the largely Christian populace. While Christians bicker and betray each other for denominational gains, the whole nation decays to the detriment of all. In this article, we exposed how Christianity came as denominations in Nigeria, provided a critical appraisal of denominationality and the ills of denominationalism. Then, we proffered inter-denominationality (not denominationalism) as the preferable orientation from denominationality for a better Christian relationality in Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":42729,"journal":{"name":"BLACK THEOLOGY","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136024296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to queer theorist José Esteban Muñoz, to disidentify with an object is not to embrace (identify) or reject (counteridentify) a phenomenon, but it is a “working on, with, and against a cultural form.” In The Amen Corner Baldwin, to borrow the language of Muñoz, “transfigures” conversion from signifying the entry of a new convert into a life of faith, to reimagining conversion/salvation as the abandonment of Christian belief and the leaving of ecclesiastical community for the higher call of love. While in Just Above My Head, conversion is reinterpreted through the medium of queer sexual expression, which simultaneously sanctifies queer sexuality, while also utilizing the sex act as a fecund space for reimagining the sacred and salvation.","PeriodicalId":42729,"journal":{"name":"BLACK THEOLOGY","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49081626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
