"The black experience provides a perspective for theology in the same vein as it provides a perspective for history. Just as an emphasis on African-American history can enhance and better our understanding of American History. A biblically based and historically consistent black theology will not contradict the historic theology of the church ... Rather it will enhance our theological understanding. Such diversity in theology is to the glory of God."
