Notes:
164 p., Explores many aspects of Caribbean religion and spirituality, especially the complexities of carnival and its uniquely African soul. He notes too a theological dependency, and posits again a unique, Caribbean emancipatory theology to establish a theological "self-reliance." In emancipatory theology, as in Latin American liberation theology, the source for praxis and reflection is faith linked to historical experience. In the Caribbean experience, of continual struggle for identity, distinguishes and yet unites Caribbean Christians with Christians everywhere.
