Towards Liturgies That Reconcile: Race and Ritual Among African-American and European-American Protestants

Scott Haldeman is Assistant Professor of Worship at Chicago Theological Seminary, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Founding convener of the African American Liturgical Traditions Seminar of the North American Academy of Liturgy, he studies worship traditions in U.S. Protestantism too often neglected by scholars in order to sketch a truer portrait of the diversity of worship among the churches, both historically and today. His publications include American Racism and the Promise of Pentecost in Liturgy: No Longer Strangers 14:4 (Washington, DC: The Liturgical Conference), 34-50.
