This article explores the development of pentecostal political theology of race, which aims for racial equity and racial justice. It is reflected in early Black-led pentecostal interracialism, expressed in the Racial Reconciliation Manifesto, guided by a theology of just-power, and potentially informed by equity as a hermeneutic for Scripture. A pentecostal political theology of race can help guide the church and society towards dismantling systems of racial injustice and building new ecclesial and societal structures of racial justice.
This article explores the contours of an emerging pentecostal political theology of race that is framed by a quest for racial equity and racial justice that is reflected in early Black-led pentecostal interracialism, expressed in the Racial Reconciliation Manifesto, guardrailed by a theology of just-power, and informed potentially by equity as a hermeneutic to reread Scripture. A pentecostal political theology of race, then, could be a discursive construct that can orient the church and society toward racial justice in dismantling systems of racial injustice and erecting new ecclesial and societal structures of racial justice.
