American religious thought at its best. –Michael Eric Dyson, author of I May Not Get There with You: The True Martin Luther King, Jr.

Eric Lincoln, William Rand Kenan Professor of Religion and Culture (Emeritus), Duke University

“This volume of new and classic texts offers a wide-ranging introduction to the esteemed theologian’s work.” –Emerge

“Risks of Faith shows that Cone is as much a prophet after thirty years as he was in the beginning.” –Delores S. Williams, author of Black Theology in a New Key

“Risks of Faith will be a revelation to those unaware that Black Religion reflects the finest modern manifestation of Jesus’ teachings.” –Derrick Bell, author of Gospel Choirs
