Yes, White people can be saved. In Gods redemptive plan, that goes without saying. But what about the reality of white normativity? This idea and way of being in the world has been parasitically joined to Christianity, and this is the ground of many of our problems today. It is time to redouble the efforts of the church and its institutions to muster well-informed, gospel-based initiatives to fight racialized injustice and overcome the heresy of whiteness.Written by a world-class roster of scholars, Can White People Be Saved? develops language to describe the current realities of race and racism. It challenges evangelical Christianity in particular to think more critically and constructively about race, ethnicity, migration, and mission in relation to white supremacy.Historical and contemporary perspectives from Africa and the African diaspora prompt fresh theological and missiological questions about place and identity. Native American and Latinx experiences of colonialism, migration, and hybridity inspire theologies and practices of shalom. And Asian and Asian American experiences of ethnicity and class generate transnational resources for responding to the challenge of systemic injustice. With their call for practical resistance to the Western whiteness project, the perspectives in this volume can revitalize a vision of racial justice and peace in the body of Christ.

Preface

T his book has at least three geneses: the personal lives of the editors and contributors; the 2017 Missiology Lectures with the theme Race, Theology, and Mission, at Fuller Theological Seminarys School of Intercultural Studies (SIS); and the life experiences of the conference participants and attendees. We all have seen the struggles of the church and its institutions to muster gospel-based initiatives to fight racism and discrimination emerging from the Western whiteness project. The combined distilled life experiences, institutional knowledge, and rigorous academic research come to you in this book.

We, the editors, acknowledge our incomplete work in that many experiences were ignored, including the experiences of Australian Aborigines with British colonial whiteness, the lives of Pilipino natives with Spanish and American whiteness colonial enterprises, and the myriad other native peoples from Greenland Inuit to Pitcairn Island natives, from the Smi peoples of Lapland in northern Finland to Patagonias Mapuche, from Taloyoaks Inuit to Lesothos Bantu-speaking people.
