Trends And Shifts: Migration, Reverse Missions, And African Catholic Priests In Iowa City, Usa, Kefas Lamak
Journal of Global Catholicism
This study uses ethnographic research to examine the work and self-conception of African-trained priests in a city in the American state of Iowa. This phenomenon is part of a broader trend and shift as African-trained priests take up positions as pastors and missionaries throughout Europe and America. The article argues that the movement of African priests to the West in recent years should be understood as “reverse mission” because of its similarities to Western missionary activity in third world countries in earlier historical periods. This study mainly focuses on Iowa City, where the researcher interviewed five African priests serving in …

“I Tell Them Generics, But Not The Specifics”: Exploring Tensions Underlying Familial Support For First-Generation Latinx Undergraduate Students, Stephany Cuevas
Education Faculty Articles and Research
Families continue to play an essential role in the experiences of first-generation Latinx undergraduate students and can serve as powerful partners to support student retention and socioemotional wellbeing. This qualitative phenomenological study uses the notion of emerging adulthood to explore how first-generation Latinx undergraduate students (n = 16) conceptualize their families’ role in their college education. Specifically, this study shows that while students describe feeling supported by their families, they also experience distinct and unique tensions tied to this support, which students associate with their first-generation student status. These tensions include (1) the family’s unfamiliarity with college culture; (2) bidirectional …

Native American And First-Nations Canadian And Physical Pfas Accumulations: A Literature Review, Laurel Liebeseller
University Honors Theses
Native communities' exposure to anthropogenic Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS: "Forever Chemicals") are not demographically or geographically evenly distributed. Those who live near or on contaminated land or water are the most likely to accumulate dangerous amounts of PFAS that may have serious health consequences (Tribal PFAS Working Group 2021). Areas that tend to be most contaminated include landfills, airports, and military bases. Often Black, Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) and low-income communities are placed near these "sacrificial zones" due to historic and current policies that segregate and marginalize people and families to polluted lands creating great environmental injustices (Dixie). …

Loving 바리데기: A Traveler's Guide To Anthologizing The 여성 시인, Tiffany Hyunkyung Chang
Comparative Literature Undergraduate Senior Theses
This thesis retells the folktale of the Korean shaman goddess 바리데기’s (Paridegi) as my journey through Korean literature. It follows Korean feminist poet Kim Hyesoon’s typology of the three deaths that 바리데기must experience to become a shamanic goddess and mediator with Death. I map these three deaths (the Death of Losing Your Name, the Death of Diaspora, and the Death of Immortal Crossings) onto the three stages of my development as a second-generation Korean American literary scholar, translator, and artist. Through connecting my personal journeys with the disciplinary concerns facing comparative literature, Asian American studies, Asian area studies, and Korean …

Reimagining The Single-Author Seminar: Teaching Wheatley Peters, Milton, And The Master’S Discourse, Kate Ozment
ABO: Interactive Journal for Women in the Arts, 1640–1830
This article discusses a senior-level literature course that puts into dialogue Phillis Wheatley Peters and John Milton. Wheatley Peters’ poetry on tyranny and freedom during the American Revolution, especially “America,” is compared to Milton’s Tenure of Kings and Magistrates, Areopagitica, and Paradise Lost, which explore the same themes during the English Civil War. Students trace how Milton’s transformative but narrowed ideas of freedom for enfranchised subjects in England are powerfully reimagined by Wheatley Peters in double meanings of freedom for the colonies and enslaved subjects. Secondary sources allow students to engage in the canon-building of Milton as …

Phillis Wheatley Peters’S British Publicity Campaign, Susan Carlile
ABO: Interactive Journal for Women in the Arts, 1640–1830
Scholarship has tended to place its focus on Phillis Wheatley Peters’ unsuccessful efforts in America, followed by an account of one British figure, the Countess of Huntingdon, who patronized the publication of Poems on Various Subjects in London in 1773. However, the chronology of the British campaign, the modes of print publication, and the locations in which Phillis Wheatley Peters’ words were published deserve closer attention. This essay highlights previously unknown or unremarked upon British publications outside London, the Drewry Derby Mercury, the Ipswich Journal, the Hibernian, and John Gillies’s Memoirs of the Life of the Reverend George Whitefield, …

Aromas Y Sabores Para Los Dioses Mayas: Alimentos De Ixim Y Pom, Diana Peralta Cervantes
Maya America: Journal of Essays, Commentary, and Analysis
Resumen: El presente texto tiene como objetivo analizar el papel que el binomio ixim (maíz)- pom (incienso) desempeñó en la ritualidad de los mayas yucatecos del Posclásico (900-1542 d. C.) y aporta algunos datos relativos a los lacandones y cho’rti’s del siglo XX, ya que existe una afinidad en los usos y funciones que le han dado estos grupos a la pareja a lo largo de la historia. Como parte de lo que Alfredo López Austin denomina “núcleo duro de la tradición mesoamericana” (López, 2008: 20) se encuentran el ixim (maíz) y el pom (incienso), elementos que se documentan en …

Resumen: En este texto presento la importancia que cobra un gran tamal, conocido como zacahuil, bolin, tapataxtle, tlapepecholi o patlache en diversos rituales que se realizan en la Huasteca. Parto de mostrar al lector la ubicación de esta extensa región conocida como la Huasteca y la manera en que en ella encontramos la presencia de los teenek, grupo étnico de filiación maya, que ahí se asentaron interactuando con los nahuas y otomíes principalmente. La importancia que cobra también en Yucatán el mukbil pollo o pibil pollo me llevaría a suponer que fueron los teenek los que llevaron, en su equipaje …

El consumo de tamales en los pueblos mayas contemporáneos es una constante y se han comido de manera cotidiana, festiva y ritual en todos los estratos de la población. La cultura tradicional (que por supuesto siempre está en constante transformación) ha reconocido que los tamales se han consumido espiritualmente por los antepasados y también por entidades sagradas como las deidades, espíritus de la milpa y de la montaña.
