Come celebrate Christopher Hunt, Assistant Professor of Religion, and his new book Jimmy\u2019s Faith: James Baldwin, Disidentification, and the Queer Possibilities of Black Religion<\/a> <\/em>with a book talk and light refreshments tomorrow,\u00a0 Tuesday, Dec. 3, from 4-5:30 p.m. in the Tim Fuller Event Space, Tutt Library.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The relationship of James Baldwin\u2019s life and work to Black religion is in many ways complex and confounding. What is he doing through his literary deployment of religious language and symbols? With Jimmy\u2019s Faith<\/em>, Hunt shows how Baldwin\u2019s usage of those religious symbols both shifted their meaning and served as a way for him to build his own religious and spiritual vision. Hunt demonstrates the ways in which Baldwin disidentifies with and queers Black Christian language and theology throughout his literary corpus.<\/p>\n
