Ecowomanism emerges from third wave womanist thought that emphasises interdisciplinary, interreligious and intergenerational dialogue as approaches to environmental ethics. Ecowomanism unashamedly validates the importance of the perspectives of women of color, and especially the voices, perspectives and contributions of women of African descent.

"Faith, Feminism, and Scholarship engages third wave Womanist, Latina, Asian, Black and White feminists discussing their approaches to religious scholarship, teaching strategies, and participation in communal and social activism. The volume looks at major themes in feminist religious scholarship including our identities as scholars and activists, what lead us to ministry as scholars, and how our work is shaped by our faith commitments. The authors engage feminist and womanist theory, post-colonial thought, critical race theory, gender studies as well as using personal narrative to describe and enliven tensions in these theories and practice including pedagogical models of transformation."--Publisher's website.

Womanist approaches to the study of religion and society have contributed much to our understanding of Black religious life, activism, and women's liberation. Deeper Shades of Purple explores the achievements of this movement over the past two decades and evaluates some of the leading voices and different perspectives within this burgeoning field.Deeper Shades of Purple brings together a who's who of scholars in the study of Black women and religion who view their scholarship through a womanist critical lens. The contributors revisit Alice Walker's definition of womanism for its viability for the approaches to discourses in religion of Black women scholars. Whereas Walker has defined what it means to be womanist, these contributors define what it means to practice womanism, and illuminate how womanism has been used as a vantage point for the theoretical orientations and methodological approaches of Black women scholar-activists.Contributors: Karen Baker-Fletcher, Katie G.
