Why are some black people leaving mainstream churches and joining alternative Black Bible Religions? With increasing numbers of Black Brits becoming attracted to Afroasiatic Diasporic Religions such as Rastafari and the Holy Qubtic Church, there is an urgent need to explore the various questions, experiences, and ideas of these individuals. In Black, British and De-churched, Dr Eleasah Louis argues that these trends illuminate significant gaps in mainstream UK church life where there is a failure to respond meaningfully to racism. In response to this challenge, she provides insights to challenge and support evangelism, discipleship, teaching and reconciliation in British churches.
