Synopsis

"Black people don’t go to heaven..." contributes significantly to the understanding of the complex relationships between evangelical Christianity and racism in Brazil. This work goes beyond autobiographical record or isolated denunciation, presenting a historically grounded and theologically founded analysis of the role of religious institutions in the construction and maintenance of structural racism in society.
The text stands out for its ability to integrate different levels of analysis: personal experience, the historical recovery of ecclesiastical action during slavery, the critique of distorted biblical interpretations, and the observation of current practices. This multidimensional approach allows for a more detailed and balanced understanding of religious racism. The narrative undertaken avoids both unproductive resentment and complacent naivety. By pointing out contradictions and deficiencies within institutions, the author advocates a perspective of transformation, arguing that a sincere return to the teachings of Christ will require a firm fight against racism in all its forms. This critical yet constructive stance distinguishes this work from anti-Christian expressions or simplistic institutional apologetics.
