Fannie Lou Hamerâs Revolutionary Practical Theology
Racial and Environmental Justice Concerns
Series: - Theology in Practice, Volume: 9
Author:
In Fannie Lou Hamerâs Revolutionary Practical Theology Crozier acknowledges, analyses, and constructs the civil and human rights leaderâs Christian thought and practice. Commonly known for her political activism, Hamer is presented as a religious thought leader whose embodiment of ideas and ideals helped to disrupt and transform the Jim Crow of the South within and beyond electoral politics.
Through primary source documents of Hamerâs oral history interviews, autobiographical writings, speeches, and multimedia publications on or about her life and legacy, Crozier allows Hamer to have her say on racial and environmental justice concerns. Crozier introduces Hamer as a revolutionary practical theologian who resided on the margins of the church, academy, and society.

Karen D. Crozier, Ph.D. (2006), Claremont School of Theology, is founder of Jewel of Justice, a small business servicing womenâs personal and professional development. As a former theological educator, she published articles including âThe Luminous Darkness of Du Boisâ Double-Consciousness.â
"Dr. Crozier reminds a world that cries out for healing of the patron saint of theo-political practical imagination that is Fannie Lou Hamer. It is more than a biography of Hamer. Crozier offers Hamer's life and work as a call to action for anyone standing for freedom and justice across this nation." â Dr Patrick B. Reyes, Forum for Theological Exploration.
