The Magnificast

This week we remember the life of James Cone, who sparked black liberation theology in the United States. He died on April 28th this year. To think about his work, influence, and future, we talk with Amaryah Armstrong about how Cone has played a role in her own work and in public theology. We also talk about Cone's essay "The Black Church and Marxism: What Do They Have To Say To Each Other?"

Also, we give you an update from the Benedict Basement. Spoiler: Marxism is scary, folks!

Intro/transition music by Amaryah Armstrong
