520 |a Theophus Smith's Conjuring Culture provides the hermeneutical tools to track the transmission and transformation of Biblical images, metaphors, and figures beyond the sacred site of the African American church into the popular cultural forms of film, music, and performance poetry as exemplified by Saul Stacey Williams. Williams uses Biblical figures to challenge white supremacy, patriarchy, and misogyny, while identifying his cultural productions as expressions of divinity. Rooting himself firmly in the hip hop genre, Williams' brilliant appropriations of the Bible as a "conjure book" point to the continued relevance and importance of Christianity to contemporary youth and popular culture.
