520 |a In Finding God in All the Black Places, Beretta E. Smith-Shomade contends that Black spirituality and Black church religiosity are the critical crux of Black popular culture. She argues that cultural, community, and social support live within the Black church and that spirit, art, and progress are deeply entwined and seal this connection. Including the work of artists such as Mary J. Blige, D’Angelo, Erykah Badu, Prince, Spike Lee, and Oprah Winfrey, the book examines contemporary Black television, film, music and digital culture to demonstrate the role, impact, and dominance of spirituality and religion in Black popular culture. Smith-Shomade believes that acknowledging and comprehending the foundations of Black spirituality and Black church religiosity within Black popular culture provide a way for viewers, listeners, and users not only to endure but also to revitalize. 
520 |a In „Finding God in All the Black Places“ vertritt Beretta E. Smith-Shomade die Ansicht, dass schwarze Spiritualität und schwarze Kirchenreligiosität den entscheidenden Kern der schwarzen Popkultur bilden. Sie argumentiert, dass kulturelle, gemeinschaftliche und soziale Unterstützung in der schwarzen Kirche lebendig sind und dass Geist, Kunst und Fortschritt eng miteinander verwoben sind und diese Verbindung besiegeln. Das Buch untersucht anhand von Werken von Künstlern wie Mary J. Blige, D’Angelo, Erykah Badu, Prince, Spike Lee und Oprah Winfrey das zeitgenössische schwarze Fernsehen, Film, die Musik und die digitale Kultur, um die Rolle, den Einfluss und die Dominanz von Spiritualität und Religion in der schwarzen Popkultur aufzuzeigen. Smith-Shomade ist überzeugt, dass das Anerkennen und Verstehen der Grundlagen schwarzer Spiritualität und schwarzer Kirchenreligiosität innerhalb der schwarzen Popkultur Zuschauern, Zuhörern und Nutzern nicht nur hilft, durchzuhalten, sondern auch neue Kraft zu schöpfen.
