Resisting Theologies and the Everyday
This powerful volume provides dynamic ways of constructing theologies of resistance and liberation by engaging with the everyday practices of marginalised communities. In doing so, this collection of theological experts reject abstracted concepts of bodes and taxonomies of race, gender, sexuality, and disability. Readers will find this a dynamic book with a variety of approaches that provide ways of constructing theologies of resistance and liberation. Experiences of marginalisation have provided a powerful reference point for developing theologies of justice and liberation; however, theological and political frameworks often reduce the complexity of lived experiences into categories and themes. Daily practices of resisting and surviving are frequently considered too fleshy, domestic, or banal to be of theological meaning. Therefore, Radford and their coterie of academics draw on understandings of 'the everyday' in feminist, womanist, Latinx, and decolonial theologies as well as in cultural theory. This allows critical reflection on how theological approaches can shape alternative relations to self, society, and the sacred. In recognising the lived and felt realities of struggling against oppressive colonial and racialised systems, contributors engage with academic and activist debates about the possibilities of remaking social relations and creating other ways of knowing and being. From Black theology to disabled activists on social media to queer clergy in South Africa, this volume holds together differences in contributors' approaches, modelling the view that there is not just one form of resistance, nor a single approach to constructing theology.

Queering the Prophet
On Jonah, and Other Activists"Queering the Prophet is a genuinely intersectional, international, interdisciplinary and interreligious book. The prophetic figure of Jonah is shown to be queer in multitudinous ways, and is portrayed here as guiding star for other prophets negotiating their social, cultural, political and religious worlds in queer times. The voices of established and emerging scholars highlight the prophetic nature of much activist work in Africa, Europe, North America and Oceania."

Empire and Exile
Postcolonial Readings of the Book of JeremiahEmpire and Exile offers a lucid analysis of ways in which the book of Jeremiah reveals ancient Judean strategies for cultural survival during the period of Babylonian domination. Deftly deploying insights of Frantz Fanon, Homi Bhabha, Stuart Hall, and other postcolonial theorists, Davidson reads Jeremiah's sign acts, discourses, and biographical narratives as complex responses to the pressures of colonization and dislocation. Fresh and compelling, this work sheds new light on the ambivalences that attend the subaltern's struggle to reconfigure "home" in an imperial context. Empire and Exile is an indispensable resource for readers wishing to explore the intersections of postcolonial criticism and biblical studies.
