Moral Combat: Black Atheists, Gender Politics, and the Values Wars

"Moral Combat" explores the complex relationship between religion, race, and social justice within African American communities, highlighting the tensions between traditional religious values and progressive, humanist perspectives. The book examines how religious ideologies have influenced political and social issues, from civil rights to contemporary moral battles, and showcases the voices of Black atheists challenging dominant religious orthodoxies. Through a critical analysis of cultural and political shifts, Sikivu Hutchinson presents a vision for a socially conscious humanism rooted in African American history and thought.
