In Black Lives Matter and The Image of God: A Theo-Anthropological Study, the author argues that "God" mirrors humankind rather than the other way around. God for him is made in the image of man. Humankind is not created by God. What one means by God is thus subjective and informed by ones context. Consequently, Black lives matter to God only if they matter to the theologian. The depth of the matter depends on his or her experience. Hence, this book is memoiristic in discussing systematic loci like God, humankind, Christ, and the Trinity. The author concludes that Gods future is inseparable from humane values that eschew white supremacy and other modes of self-deification in favor of ethics that cultivate life for all human beings.
