Book Synopsis Black Saints in Early Modern Global Catholicism by : Erin Kathleen Rowe
Book excerpt: This is the untold story of how black saints - and the slaves who venerated them - transformed the early modern church. It speaks to race, the Atlantic slave trade, and global Christianity, and provides new ways of thinking about blackness, holiness, and cultural authority.
