My multiple wish lists on Amazon.com are brimming over with interesting titles, and I recently purchased two of volumes from my African American environmental history list with the last three still awaiting purchase:
  • Rooted in the Earth: Reclaiming the African American Environmental Heritage
  • African American Environmental Thought: Foundations
  • Dumping in Dixie: Race, Class and Environmental Quality
  • Ride Out the Wilderness: Geography and Identity in Afro-American Literature
  • Black Nature: Four Centuries of African American Nature Poetry
What I am impressed by is the interdisciplinary nature of the conversations. From literature and poetry to political science and history the musings are rich and full of untapped resources for theological and ethical reflection. How exciting!
