An Examination of Salutary Expression Among African-American
Until now no scholar has examined the salutary expression among African Americans. Riggins Earl, Jr. does an excellent job of educating and informing the reader simaltaneously. Earl's argument of African-American's living with the challenge of proving ones sisterly or brotherly capabilities hold true today. I believe the book is excellent. Good work, Riggins R. Earl, Jr.
Eye-opening and thought-provoking
Dark Salutations: Ritual, God, And Greetings In The African American Community is a unique, in-depth analysis of the connection between greetings among the African-American community, and the desire to be treated as equal siblings in the family of God. Author Riggins Earl, a professor of Ethics and Theology at the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta, examines the light/dark poetic metaphors found in the salutational speech of African-American men and women, and compares it to prophetic and priestly nature in the religious and moral conscience of African-Americans. Dark Salutations is an eye-opening, thought-provoking look at a seemingly ordinary part of African-American life.
