Summary/Abstract: The paper examines the interrelation of womanism, theology, and nature in an attempt to verify the ecowomanist liberation ethics that is both ecological and ecospiritual. Nature is conceptualized as a memory space, where the African American cultural trauma is remembered and reworked, and as a field of significance, where through creative action the restoration of the creation becomes possible.
