This Is Not a Fighting Song, Paperback / softback Book

This Is Not a Fighting Song Paperback / softback

Part of the Short Theological Engagements with Popular Music series

Paperback / softback

Description

It is through their music that the Indigo Girls build upon the theological idea of community-building and solidarity-forming, in order to tell the stories, to relate the authentic experience of human struggle and reconciliation, of human love and pain.

Further, they work outward, convicted that their music and songwriting is an avenue to speak truth to power.

All of this serves as theological reflection worked out in public and vocal forms of prophetic denunciation and proclamation.

Their songs take on this prophetic tone of denunciation--speaking against oppression, inequality, and injustice.

Moreover, their music does not remain complacent in the critique; through their songwriting they participate in prophetic proclamation--envisioning alternative ways of being, contributing to the collective imagination of contexts of equality, peace, and human freedom.
