|a The author presents his perspective on the religious experience of the African diaspora in the Americas, identifying and contextualizing literatures that exemplify the ways in which religion has informed, infused, and liberated, and, bounded the lives of the African-descended peoples. Gomez argues that this set of experiences cannot be understood outside the complex of African religions that contributed fundamentally to African cultures and societies that adhered both before and during the transatlantic slave trade. The author holds that the study of African American religions is, to a considerable degree, the review of African-descended communities who have either struggled to retain or escape connections with African antecedents. Gomez surveys the history of religious practice among African Americans, the influence of African religions, the social rule of religion, the role of non-African religions, and religion and the Civil Rights Movement. The first half of the twentieth century witnessed an explosion of religious activity. New religions, such as Rastafarianism and the Nation of Islam, arose in the Americas, typically taken from the fabrics of Islamic-Judeo-Christian traditions and woven into entirely novel patterns, informed by a vision of Africa as an historical power and a future destination. Following the essay, a bibliography of recommended reading, a chronology of events from 1736 to 1968, and a glossary of African American religious ideas, leaders, and groups is presented.
