"the theological problem of whiteness" (379)

"Postlude on Christology and Race: Maximus the Confessor as Anticolonialist Intellectual": "the flesh in which divinity and humanity are conjoined is Jesus' *poor* Jewish flesh... As such, God enters into the hurts of those who suffer so that from inside those hurts, being fully identified with them to the point of communicating his divinity through them, he heals them" (368).

ch. 7 "The Death of Christ: A Theologivla Reading of Frederick Douglass's 1845 Narrative"

"what makes 'white' theology 'white' is that it does not do its work pentecostally... It is unable to speak the truth of the God of Israel in a language--and therefore in a cultural and political orientation--that is not its own... This inability--the stammering of whiteness--leads to a repression of all other identities" (311)
