The salient question is, \u201cWhat distinguishes black Pentecostalism?\u201d This study revisits James H.\u00a0Cone\u2019s sources for black theology for insight into the role of blackness in shaping black Pentecostalism. On the one hand, the study dispels the myth that black Pentecostalism is inherently a spiritual alternative to the fight for social justice. On the other hand, it calls for critical dialogue between Cone\u2019s sources for black theology and black Pentecostalism to advance scholarship on the formation of black pentecostal hermeneutics. This essay explains that blackness is more than a cultural and experiential reality. Blackness is a theological source that correlates with other sources in shaping black Pentecostalism. Blackness, moreover, legitimates black pentecostal proclivities for the integration of the faith, spirituality, and social advocacy. Theological blackness in Pentecostalism has historically distinguished black Pentecostalism from subsequent white Pentecostalism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/cgcm\/files\/2020\/03\/image001.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/cgcm\/files\/2020\/03\/image001.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"864\" height=\"689\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-9798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgcm\/files\/2020\/03\/image001.png 864w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgcm\/files\/2020\/03\/image001-376x300.png 376w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgcm\/files\/2020\/03\/image001-768x612.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent award-winning article in Pneuma, Antipas Harris (&#8217;08)\u00a0advances hermeneutical insights for emerging black pentecostal scholars to consider.
