«An important and powerful book. Vesely-Flad has done an immensely impressive job at allowing the voices of Black Buddhists to tell their own stories of faith and liberation.»
Larry Ward, author of America’s Racial Karma: An Invitation to Heal
«An extremely important and timely contribution to scholarship on Black religion in the US, and on Buddhist studies. Vesely-Flad’s ethnographic interviews, which are a fantastically rich part of the book, center the voices and interpretations of Black Buddhists in a way that is unparalleled and enables the author to effectively argue for the importance of Black Buddhist teachers’ insights into Buddhist wisdom.»
Sarah Jacoby, author of Love and Liberation: Autobiographical Writings of the Tibetan Buddhist Visio
«An exciting project; hearing the voices of more than 70 multi-lineage Black Buddhists is itself a significant contribution to Buddhism in America. Vesely-Flad’s coverage of the Black Radical Tradition is superb—the history and breakdown of the different threads of the Black Radical Tradition is compelling and impressive.»
Ann Gleig, author of American Dharma: Buddhism Beyond Modernity
