Some contributors undertake detailed analyses of how religion creates (and justifies) different forms of inequality that holds back individuals, groups and communities across the continent from flourishing, while others show how religion can also mitigate inequality in Africa. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Topics addressed include gender inequality, economic inequality, disability, ageism and religious homophobia.
