About the Book

"Ruled by Britannia is a timely warning to the churches of Jamaica and United Kingdom for abandoning their original role as liberators of the African Jamaican. It is cry from the heart of one who observes her people thrice disadvantaged. First by the transatlantic slave trade, then by the denuding of Emancipation and now by the bastardizing of the religious, social and cultural norms of the African Jamaican. Perhaps the most important contributions of this book are the results of the Focus Groups whose conclusions prove to be fascinating, instructive, challenging and hopeful. This book is an urgent message addressed primarily to the Jamaican (Caribbean) church but it is also an invitation to every person of good endeavour and I recommend it."Rev. Dr Horace O Russell CD is Professor Emeritus of Historical Theology and Dean of Chapel of Eastern Seminary, St. David's, USA, and former President of United Theological College of the West Indies, Kingston, Jamaica."Dr Morrison's superb book is both timely and important. Her argument is not only fascinating in historical terms, but highly salient today. Dr Morrison shows how theological education was used by British colonial rulers to suppress resistance in Jamaica in the period following the 1865 Morant Bay rebellion. Her thesis is powerful, and her evidence detailed and illuminating. Her analysis offers lessons that we would all do well to heed today, as we seek to redress the legacies of this period, and journey towards justice in the aftermath of slavery and colonialism."Dr Joanna Burch-Brown, Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Bristol, Bristol, England."Rule by Britannia is very important contribution to Black Atlantic Christianity. This work identifies and explores a subject of study that is either ignored or excluded from religious and theological scholarship. It is useful to church, academy and civil society by providing a non-Eurocentric perspective of Christianity. Dr Morrison is especially qualified to unravel this much overdue study as a student and practitioner of the diverse Black Atlantic theological tradition." Delroy A. Reid-Salmon, Pastor of Grace Baptist Chapel & Visiting Fellow, Oxford Centre for Christianity and Culture, Regent's Park College, Oxford, England.
