Alton
Pollard III, Dean and Professor
of Religion and Cultures
Howard University School of Divinity
“Between Death
and Life: The Middle Passage"
“Between Death and Life: The Middle
Passage"
In this presentation, Pollard speaks
thematically to the continuous and
contiguous character of our enterprise
as people of African descent in the
United States. The Black religious
experience is the sacred repository
of a people, conceived in the individual
struggle and the historical travail
created by the past, the recurrent
challenges of the present, and the
transcendent possibilities of the
not yet. It is atrocity, pain, and
suffering seared indelibly on a body
collective that somehow also unfathomably
and impossibly soars. It is prophetic
hope outwardly directed toward public
causes and solutions, and inwardly
focused on a defining vision of religious
and spiritual faithfulness with regard
to self-identity and life. It invokes
natural, supernatural and sacred agency
that aids individual and communal
survival and salvation, and seeks
to make sense of that which is beyond
the scope of current human understanding.
Diversely engaged by the community
in terms of gender, generation, indigenization,
sexuality, socio-economic level, immigration,
religious denomination and community
and so on, Middle Passages grapples
with the rational Black mind and the
spirit of the ancestors – decolonizing
our understanding of inherited traditions,
creating a new word when and where
necessary, and affirming the Black
faithful every step of the way.
