Angebote / Angebote:

Blum and Harvey weave a tapestry of American dreams and visionsfrom witch hunts to web pages, Harlem to Hollywood, Mormon revelations to Indian reservationsto show how Americans visually remade the Son of God time and again into a sacred symbol of their greatest aspirations, deepest terrors, and mightiest strivings for racial power and justice. Some envisioned a white Christ who would sanctify the exploitation of other races, others, a messiah willing to confront white supremacy. The color of Christ still symbolizes America's most combustible divisions, revealing the power and malleability of race and religion from colonial times to present day.
