Katie's Canon: Womanism and the Soul of the Black Community
"This is vintage Katie Cannon - challenging, prophetic, self-critical, and womanist to the bone."—Cornel West"In her book Katie's Canon, the explosive voice of Katie Geneva Cannon as womanist and theological liberation ethicist boldly proclaims the vital presence and contributions of African American women."—The Presbyterian Outlook"Provocative and enlightening."—Publishers Weekly"Cannon moves easily from the passion of folklore and legend to the conceptually rich...language of ethics and womanist theology. Her role 'is to speak as "one of the canonical boys" and as the "non-canonical other" at one and the same time.' In this, she most assuredly succeeds."—Library Journal"In her book, 'Katie's Canon', the explosive voice of Katie Geneva Cannon as womanist and theological liberation ethicist boldly proclaims the vital presence and contributions of African American women."—The Presbyterian Outlook"Every theologian, student, and lay person should have a copy of Katie's Canon to measure the breadth and depth of their theological commitment. I strongly recommend it."—James H. Cone"An important, trail-blazing work."—Catholic Library World
