Black Liberation Theology is a movement within Christian theology that emphasizes the importance of addressing social justice and racial inequality. It emerged in the United States during the 1960s, influenced by the civil rights movement and the struggles of African Americans. This theology interprets the Bible through the experiences of marginalized communities, asserting that God is on the side of the oppressed. Central to Black Liberation Theology is the belief that salvation is not only spiritual but also involves social and political liberation. Prominent figures, such as James Cone, have argued that understanding Jesus' message requires recognizing the systemic injustices faced by Black people. This approach seeks to empower individuals and communities to fight against oppression and achieve equality.
