Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

The Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium, Volume One, is a continuation of something that began almost thirty years ago. In Baltimore at the Motherhouse of the Oblate Sisters of Providence on Gunn Road was held the first meeting of African American theologians, historians, psychologists, liturgists, and other scholars. We had assembled to discuss our place as African American scholars and theologians in our Catholic Church. We were faced with two questions: Can one be a serious black Catholic theologian and can one be at the same time authentically black? As black Catholics, we were faced with a double …

Committed To The Faith While Sticking Out Like A Sore Thumb: Stories Of Black Catholics On The Social Frontier, Robert L. Bartlett

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Bartlett presents the results of a survey of Black Catholics in predominantly White parishes, a topic he presented in part during the 2002 Annual Meeting in Spokane, Washington. He focuses on the lived experiences of these Black Catholics who maneuver within what he terms “the social frontier” as they describe their challenges as they’ve tried, with mixed results, to practice their faith in the face of tension generated by racial, community, and personal pressures.

A Vision For The Future, Kimberly Flint-Hamilton Dec 2007

A Vision For The Future, Kimberly Flint-Hamilton

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Nearly thirty years ago, a group of young Catholic scholars gathered together to start what would be a long journey. The Reverend Thaddeus Posey convened them in 1978, and they met once again in 1979. They began meeting at that time because they all shared the same vision, to form a theology “that is authentically Black and truly Catholic,” as stated in what would become their Constitution.

More than a decade passed. Then, in 1991, Jamie T. Phelps, O.P., reconvened the group. Since then, the Black Catholic Theological Symposium has met almost every year, developing their vision together and offering …

Canons And Customs In Colonial Zimbabwe: Jesuits And African Marriage Practices, C. 1890-1967, Nicholas M. Creary Dec 2007

Canons And Customs In Colonial Zimbabwe: Jesuits And African Marriage Practices, C. 1890-1967, Nicholas M. Creary

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

This article, delivered as a paper for the 2003 Annual Meeting in Atlanta, treats of African Marriage in Zimbabwe according to “Customary Law” and Western Christian Marriage according to Canon Law. In the beginning of colonialism the missionaries required observance of canonical requirements for Catholic marriage. The colonial government sought to regularize the African marriage traditions. The result was a lessening of Church marriages. This article is a report on the efforts made to renew inculturation in Zimbabwe from c. 1890 to 1967.

Good Fences And Good Neighbors? Biblical Scholars And Theologians, Jean-Pierre Ruiz May 2007

Good Fences And Good Neighbors? Biblical Scholars And Theologians, Jean-Pierre Ruiz

Journal of Hispanic / Latino Theology

The author takes occasion of the decision by the American Academic of Religion to separate its annual meetings from those of the Society for Biblical Literature, to reflect on the challenging disciplinary frontier arrayed between systematic theology and biblical studies. In particular, he calls for critical theological interpretation of the claims of biblical scholarship, bearing in mind the contextuality of all discourses. For their part, biblical scholars should call systematic theologians to operate within the framework of what Fernando Segovia has called a hermeneutics of otherness and engagement, as a preface to reading with exegetes and other academic, pastoral, professional …
