The Day God Saw Me As Black

The Day God Saw Me as Black is a genre-defying, cultural critique of white supremacy in the Black Pentecostal religious experience through the lenses of race, gender, sexual expression, and class analyses. A narrative that weaves between critique and meditation, decolonization and reconciliation, the theoretical and the deeply personal, The Day God Saw Me as Black is an imagining of what could be if we stopped denying ourselves -- and each other -- full liberation.

The Day God Saw Me as Black healed parts of me I didn't even know needed healing and addressed questions I'd given up hope of ever having answered. D. Danyelle Thomas had me dusting off my Bible to read scriptures I'd never seen before and re-reading others in a new, liberatory, revolutionary light. This book is a revelation!--Deesha Philyaw "Author of The Secret Lives of Church Ladies"
