Enfleshing Freedom - Body Race...

M. Shawn Copeland

The achievement of our humanity comes about only through immersion in concrete, visceral, embodied relational experience, yet for many human beings, that achievement is stamped by the struggle against oppression in history, society, and religion. In this incisive and important work, distinguished theologian M. Shawn Copeland demonstrates with rare insight and conviction how Black women's historical experience and oppression cast a completely different light on our theological ideas about being human. Copeland argues that race, embodiment, and relations of power reframe not only theological anthropology but also our notions of discipleship, church, Eucharist, and Christ. Enfleshing Freedom is a work of deep moral seriousness, rigorous speculative skill, and sharp theological reasoning. This new edition incorporates recent theological, philosophical, historical, political, and sociological scholarship; engages with current social movements like #BlackLivesMatter and #MeToo; and presents a new chapter on the body.

The South African Famine of 1820...

Sarah Willards

In the early 19th century, South Africa was a land marked by contrasts—fertile valleys and arid plains, indigenous traditions and growing colonial ambition. The region most affected by the famine of 1820 was the Cape Colony, which had come under British control in 1806. This colony served as a strategic resupply point for British ships sailing to and from the East Indies, and it was gradually becoming a hub for European settlement, particularly by the Dutch-descended Boers and British immigrants arriving as part of state-sponsored schemes. These settlers introduced European agricultural practices, often ill-suited to the diverse and unpredictable South African climate.
The colony’s geography played a significant role in shaping life and livelihoods. Coastal areas received more rainfall and were relatively fertile, while the interior—known as the Karoo and other semi-arid zones—was prone to drought and soil erosion. Farming communities depended heavily on seasonal rainfall to sustain crops such as wheat, maize, and barley, as well as livestock including sheep and cattle. When these rains failed, communities faced immediate and severe consequences, especially in regions where irrigation infrastructure was minimal or nonexistent.
The social landscape of the Cape was equally complex. Indigenous groups such as the Xhosa, Khoikhoi, and San had long adapted to the challenges of the land through mixed economies of herding, gathering, and small-scale farming. Their interaction with European settlers was often strained, marked by competition over land and water sources, cultural misunderstandings, and colonial policies that marginalized local traditions and governance structures.
