'''Black liberation theology''' is the affirmation of Black humanity that emancipates black people from White [[racism]]. Based on victimology, it is essentially a highly selective interpretation of the Gospels in an attempt to co-opt Christianity to promote [[Communism]] and [[Marxism]].  Black Liberation Theology was coined by James Cone, PhD. in 1970, now teaching at New York's Union Theological Seminary.  It is to reject the idea of [[God]]'s universal nature in favor of race based critique of theological provenance.

[[Jeremiah Wright]] himself is a supporter of the [[Nation of Islam]] that latched onto the views of two race based theologists, Dwight Hopkins and James H. Cone.  Rev. Wright's statements are the heart of this theology. "Jesus was a poor black man" because he lived in oppression at the hands of "rich white people." The government is responsible for infecting blacks with HIV. [[Barack Hussein Obama]]'s spiritual mentor of twenty years, Rev. Wright taught victimology, race-based theology mixed with Christianity.
