The Black Messiah (1968) is a non-fiction book by Albert B. Cleage.
Abstract
"Black Power Christianity is for now and it is for real. As The Black Messiah makes plain, it believes in prayer and religious ritual, but it also believes in political action and economic pressure, in black control of black communities. The Black Messiah, in short, represents not a rhetorical device but a theological statement. He is founder of the Black Nation, and He gives strength and revolutionary ardor to his followers."--Publisher description.
Cleage argued that Jesus was ethnically black and the Savior of the Black Nation.
