white Christian Supremacy was brought to this continent through violent conquest, colonization, and settler colonialism. Subsequent nations and societies have been founded on its death-dealing morality, shaping collective consciousness and enforcing oppression at every level.
This book introduces and examines this legacy and four other religious phenomenon that are a consequence of it: Spiritual Violence, Spiritual Terrorism, Religious Abuse, and Spiritual Trauma.
These concepts are demonstrated through the lived experiences of marginalized people, particularly LGBTQIA+ communities in the Americas. Using ethnographic case studies, participant observation, somatic healing exercises, and reflective discussions, it offers both critical analysis and practical tools for healing and resistance.
Grounded in queer feminism, pastoral and practical theology, and cultural studies, this book provides historical context, case studies, and interactive exercises to deepen understanding.
