For Generations, The Bible Has Been Employed By Settler Colonial Societies As A Weapon To Dispossess Indigenous And Racialized Peoples Of Their Lands, Cultures, And Spiritualties. Given This Devastating Legacy, Many Want Nothing To With It. But Is It Possible For The Exploited And Their Allies To Reclaim The Bible From The Dominant Powers? Can It Serve As An Instrument For Justice In The Cause Of The Oppressed? Even A Nonviolent Weapon Toward Decolonization? In Unsettling The Word, Over 60 Indigenous And Settler Authors Come Together To Wrestle With The Scriptures, Rereading And Reimagining The Ancient Text For The Sake Of Reparative Futures.
