My Theology: The world's leading Christian thinkers explain some of the principal tenets of their theological beliefs.

'How can people racialised as black conceive God, Jesus, and the Spirit within contemporary concrete social and political worlds?' asks pioneering black theologian and broadcaster Robert Beckford. 'What would facilitate a radical theology committed to confronting racialised injustice, social inequality and environmental degradation?'

In Duppy Conqueror Beckford explains how he has recontextualised African-American black and womanist theologies of liberation to answer these questions for second and third-generation black British. His methodologies have included a correlation of linguistic concepts from black cultural history and urban life with theological concepts, and the inscription of black theology onto documentary filmmaking and contemporary gospel music.
