Review Quotes:
"This is an invaluable resource for anyone trying to understand Black Catholic experiences within our institutional church on Black Catholics' terms. It can serve as a tool for individuals and faith communities seeking to take up Pope Francis's invitation to decenter and transcend, in this case decenter whiteness and transcend white supremacy." --Maureen H. O'Connell, author of Undoing the Knots
