Product Description

▼▲

The Cross and the Lynching Tree are the two most emotionally charged symbols in the history of the African American community. In this powerful new work, theologian James H. Cone explores these symbols and their interconnection in the history and spirituality of African Americans. Noting their powerful evocation of suffering and liberation, this unique book opens up vulnerably about the legacy of slavery and racism, and African American identity in America today.
