With An Uncommon Faith Eddie S. Glaude Jr. makes explicit his pragmatic approach to the study of African American religion. He insists that scholars take seriously what he calls black religious attitudes, that is, enduring and deepseated dispositions tied to a transformative ideal that compel individuals to be otherwiseno matter the risk. This claim emerges as Glaude puts forward a rather idiosyncratic view of what the phrase African American religion offers within the context of a critically pragmatic approach to writing African American religious history.Ultimately, An Uncommon Faith reveals how pragmatism has shaped Glaudes scholarship over the years, as well as his interpretation of black life in the United States. In the end, his analysis turns our attention to those black souls who engage in the arduous task of selfcreation in a world that clings to the idea that white people matter more than others. It is a task, he argues, that requires an uncommon faith and deserves the close attention of scholars of African American religion.
