The study of Afro-Caribbean religion must take as its starting point the problem of oppression if the role of religion in the social and political order is to be adequately understood. Critical distinctions can be made between religious formations which perpetuate colonial oppression, those which react to that oppression without posing new alternatives, and those which contribute and give expression to the process of human liberation. Historians and theologians have not adequately made these distinctions and have therefore been unable to demonstrate the nature of the contribution of religious forms to the struggle for freedom and national liberation in the Caribbean
