Steven Harris is a PhD candidate in the Religions of the Americas subfield. His research interests lie at the historical intersection of antebellum black religious thought and Calvinistic theology. Along with his consideration of a potential diasporic black Calvinist tradition—and its attendant intellectual history—he also studies broader evangelical, social, and political histories of the 18th and 19th centuries. Steven received his BS degree from Vanderbilt University, an MDiv from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and an MAR from Yale Divinity School.
