About this listen

The Day God Saw Me as Black is a genre-defying, cultural critique of white supremacy in the Black Pentecostal religious experience through the lenses of race, gender, sexual expression, and class analyses. A narrative that weaves between critique and meditation, decolonization and reconciliation, the theoretical and the deeply personal, The Day God Saw Me as Black is an imagining of what could be if we stopped denying ourselves — and each other — full liberation.

Get it and Gift it 💞

As a PK who no longer regularly attends church and very much loves God, but not the way that typical black churches make God a weapon, this book was EVERYTHING 💞. Read it, and reread it ❤️

Life-changing literature for every woman, but specifically for women of color

My spiritual mother recommended this book to me after a deep discussion we had regarding race, gender, freedom, and womanhood.

I found many answers to my inquiries in this book. Diving deep into the WHY, this book is an excellent journey on deconstructing the superwoman myth, removing the cape, rejoicing in our simple and sweet vulnerabilities as Rev Jill Flowers would say, and finally embracing the freedom of our womanhood and femininity.

I am so grateful to have entered this warm and nurturing space of healing, growth, and development. This is a must read for any person looking to lift women up, and any black woman seeking the warmth of powerful sisterhood between the pages of a life-changing book.

The experience of being robbed of my innocence by a white male exposing himself to me was far too familiar.

Thanks for writing this book. It answers so many questions, including the reason why Trump is president.

Such a raw and glaringly honestly work.

This book is God breathed. I felt seen, understood and heard. I recognize kindredness. I recommend this book to anyone working to decolonize their faith.

So good I’m buying the physical copy

There is so much cultural and theological insight that I’m buying a physical copy so I can write in the margins while I read it again.

God and Queer

I hadn't read any reviews before starting this book. I just read it based on the cover. I'm so glad I did. I didn't know the author, so I didn't know she would talk about the harmful effects of religion and the queer community. I'm still processing every chapter. I'm deeply grateful she wrote this book.

“Let God Be Through, Quickly!

As a queer person of color this book affirmed all the things I know to be true. This book speaks to me personally and gave me healing that I didn’t know I needed. Thank You! A MUST READ AND A MUST SHARE!

Outstanding!!!

This book should be required reading for any person in seminary training for full time ministry and beyond!!! Thank you for your honesty, scholarship, research and reading of your work!!! Its challenging and thought provoking and practical work of personal deconstruction also amplifying the need for deconstruction.
