Description: This anthology draws bold comparisons between secularist strategies to contain, privatize, and discipline religion and the treatment of racialized subjects by the American state. Contributors from a range of disciplines expose secularism's prohibitive practices in all facets of American society and suggest opportunities for change.

Review Quotes: A tremendous volume. Its originality and interdisciplinary breadth will attract a range of scholars in the humanities and social sciences. It will shift conversations within and facilitate new discussions across the fields of race, religion, literature, and theology.--James Manigault-Bryant, Williams College
