God is not White (biblical-post-colonial-theology from Australia)
G'day,
for those interested,
http://blog.sojo.net/2009/05/29/god-is-not-and-has-never-been-white...
I’ve written this article for "God's Politics" blog to share the amazing (and sadly often unknown!) contributions of Australian Aboriginal theologies. It has had a profound effect of me and the Peace Tree Community. Please post to your profiles & share with others if the voice of prophetic Indigenous Australian Christianity is something you also feel the world must hear:
Prophetic Australian Indigenous Theology
As well as a link to a great book there's a link to some great Aussie hip hop!

It's the first Bible of its kind. My professor, Dr. Curtiss DeYoung is one of the editors. It focuses on American voices, but I believe DeYoung is the only white one. ;)
