Colonial Christianity - recasting Jesus to serve our lust for power

Amahoro is a conference about postcolonial church in Africa, exploring the consequences for the church now that colonialism (in its classic sense) has ended. We're interested in how Christianity enmeshed with the colonial project of Europe, so that the civilised White Man could bring the light of the Gospel to the Dark Continent of Africa, so that the savages could be introduced to Jesus, Civilisation, and Title Deeds.
