The Black Coptic Church: Race and Imagination in a New Religion
Leonard Cornell McKinnis II
NYU Press
Drawing on ten years of archival research and interviews with current members of the church, The Black Coptic Church offers a look at a group that insisted on its own understanding of its divine Blackness. In the process, it provides a more complex look at the diverse world of Black religious life in North America, particularly within non-mainstream Christian churches.
