Publisher's summary

The Day God Saw Me as Black is a genre-defying, cultural critique of white supremacy in the Black Pentecostal religious experience through the lenses of race, gender, sexual expression, and class analyses. A narrative that weaves between critique and meditation, decolonization and reconciliation, the theoretical and the deeply personal, The Day God Saw Me as Black is an imagining of what could be if we stopped denying ourselves — and each other — full liberation.

Heard, Seen, Convicted

It's hard to describe how I felt listening to this book. The personal narrative punctuated perfectly with the occasional piece of poetry by fellow Unfit Christian Valerie Boyer articulates so much of what it means to be black, Fem, and churched while coming into deepening awareness of self and wrestling with what that means. We've been told that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty-- and I found that liberty in this work. I love it and wholeheartedly recommend it.

“Let God Be Through, Quickly!

As a queer person of color this book affirmed all the things I know to be true. This book speaks to me personally and gave me healing that I didn’t know I needed. Thank You! A MUST READ AND A MUST SHARE!

Beyond Words

I’ve never FELT a book like this before. I’ll leave a more eloquent review at some point but right now I have to cry, laugh, shout in the corner and be slain in the spirit all at the same time.
