Text that reads: Blues as a religion This isn't even grappling with the monologue given to Sammie by Delta Slim (Delroy Lindo), identifying blues — brought from Africa to America aboard slave ships — as a sort of religion, separate from the Christianity forced upon them when they arrived. It's a bold, if potentially inflammatory statement: Coogler calls out a religion partially used to justify more than 400 years of slavery in the United States, against a people who so universally adopted it that there is now little more lonely an identity than the Black atheist. It is also calling out the appropriation of Black music, borrowed from and exploited to the point that the genres it helped birth (including country) would come to be associated with anti-Blackness. In that monologue, and Coogler's choices on songs and who sings them, Sinners connects its vampires squarely to that idea, and the potentially damning cost of rebelling against it.
