520			_a"Ethnic Patriotism and the East African Revival shows how, in the er a of African political independence, cosmopolitan Christian converts st ruggled with east Africa's patriots over the definition of culture and community. The book traces the history of the East African Revival, an evangelical movement that spread through much of eastern and central Af rica. Its converts offered a subversive reading of culture, disavowing their compatriots and disregarding their obligations to kin. They earne d the ire of east Africa's patriots, who worked to root people in place as inheritors of ancestral wisdom. This book casts religious conversio n in a new light: not as an inward reorientation of belief, but as a po litical action that opened up novel paths of self-narration and unsettl ed the inventions of tradition"-- _cProvided by publisher.
