More Than Tongues Can Tell

More Than Tongues Can Tell

Eric Lewis Williams

Pennsylvania State University Press
2026

Pentecostalism is often characterized as either an ecstatic movement, centrally involving speaking in tongues, healing, and prophecy, or an exclusivist one, aligned with North American white evangelicalism. Yet there is a vibrant Black Pentecostal tradition stretching back more than a century that is both theologically complex and deeply grounded in an ethics of social justice. In More Than Tongues Can Tell, Eric Lewis Williams dismantles prevailing notions of Pentecostalism’s anti-intellectualism and explores how social contexts shape theologies produced by marginalized groups in America. Through close readings of the work of four pioneering Black Pentecostal theologians—Bishop Ozro Thurston Jones Jr., Bishop Ithiel Conrad Clemmons, Dr. James Alexander Forbes Jr., and Dr. William Clair Turner Jr.—Williams uncovers a theological vision marked by openness to diverse Christian and philosophical traditions alongside a deep commitment to liberation and egalitarianism. Situating these thinkers within African American religious history and the wider landscape of Pentecostal theology, the book reconstructs Black Pentecostalism’s coming of age in the twentieth century. Foregrounding pneumatology as a site of theological creativity, More Than Tongues Can Tell challenges glossocentric frameworks that reduce the Spirit to ecstatic speech and demonstrates how Black Pentecostal theologians articulate a more expansive and socially engaged vision. The book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of theology and African American religion, as well as practitioners within Pentecostal communities.

From Columbus to Castro: The History of the Caribbean is about 30 million people scattered across an arc of islands -- Jamaica, Haiti, Barbados, Antigua, Martinique, Trinidad, among others-separated by the languages and cultures of their colonizers, but joined together, nevertheless, by a common heritage. For whether French, English, Dutch, Spanish, Danish, or-latterly-American, the nationality of their masters has made only a notional difference to the peoples of the Caribbean. The history of the Caribbean is dominated by the history of sugar, which is inseparable from the history of slavery; which was inseparable, until recently, from the systematic degradation of labor in the region. Here, for the first time, is a definitive work about a profoundly important but neglected and misrepresented area of the world. "Mr. Williams is forced to write about so much greed and cruelty that it is remarkable that he keeps his temper and his perspective. He succeeds, and his practical discussion of the current state of the Caribbean is among the best of its kind...He writes better than many historians and almost all politicians."-- The New Yorker

The Game explores why eight good friends decide to play a game created by one of them which challenges all of them beyond their comfort zones and relational ethics. The players are four married couples now living in Connecticut on the wealthy outskirts of Manhattan. Over years of friendly competition, the men and their wives have come to call themselves the Fearless Foursome. When one of the men constructs a game based on his sexual fantasy, he coerces the other seven - male and female - friends to play. After the game begins the norms they have developed as friends and couples begin to deteriorate. Each player begins to examine the meaning and value of marital and sexual ethics within the emerging background of sexual harassment and financial greed as 1999 comes to an end along with the millennium and Y2K. The Game is a page turner that chronicles the erosion across norms, values, standards, and relationships in today's society."... when fantasy overrides rational thinking, usually disaster or untoward outcomes result. It was a fun ride through, prior to the crash ... some of the content makes me cringe but that is the nature of the story, and the story is credible." Gail H Vance, M.D. "... the story line ... is an excellent example of the juxtaposition of competition and compassion as personal values, and the negative affect competition ultimately has on inter-personal relationships." Jim Van Buren.The Game is Eric C. Williams' debut novel. He has worked in economics, mathematics, and the world of software from mainframes in the late '60s to the laptops of today. Born in Chagrin Falls, Ohio he now lives in Chicago with his artistic (and very useful editor) wife, Sandy. As a result of his entrepreneurial career in the United States, London, and Brussels, Eric has developed rich insight into human relationships. The Game shows that he has been paying attention.

Tales from Du Bois

Offers a new framework for understanding Du Bois's poetics and politics, including the concept of double consciousness, by tracing the trope of the cross-caste romance across his fiction.Tales from Du Bois brings together critical race theory, queer studies, philosophy, and genre theory to offer an illuminating new comprehensive study of W. E. B. Du Bois's fiction from 1903–1928. Erika Renée Williams begins by revisiting Du Bois's tale of being rebuffed by a white female classmate in The Souls of Black Folk, identifying it as a failure of what she calls "cross-caste romance"-a sentimental, conjugal, or erotic relation projected across lines of cultural difference. In Du Bois's text, this failure figures as the cause of double consciousness, the experience of looking at oneself through the eyes of others. Far from being unique to Souls, the trope of cross-caste romance, Williams argues, structures much of Du Bois's literary oeuvre. With it, Du Bois queries romance's capacity to ground nationalism, on the one hand, and to foment queer forms of Afro-Diasporic reclamation and kinship, on the other. Beautifully written and deftly argued, Tales from Du Bois analyzes familiar works like Souls and Dark Princess alongside neglected short fiction to make a case for the value of Du Bois's literary writing and its centrality to his thought more broadly.
