Mining the Motherlode clearly defines the tenets, resources, and methods of womanist Christian social ethics by providing a womanist orientation on how racial and gender ideologies as well as social position inform research methods for this field.
Floyd-Thomas accomplishes this by a) articulating the methodological contributions that womanist ethicists have made in this field of Christian ethics; b) distinguishing between 'traditional Christian ethics' and 'liberation ethics'; and c) upholding Black women's moral struggles with race, class, and gender as an essential context to inform ethical inquiry and new possibilities for social justice.
Will appeal to a broad scholarly audience.
