Summary
Third wave womanism is a new movement within religious studies with deep roots in the tradition of womanist religious thought while also departing from it in key ways. This volume, edited by Monica Coleman, gathers essays from established and emerging scholars whose work is among the most lively and innovative scholarship today. The result is a vital conversation in which "to question is not to disavow; to depart is not necessarily to reject" and where questioning and departing are indications of the productive growth and expansion of an important academic and religious movement.
