The Sources And Meaning Of The Conversion Of Claude Mckay, Cecilia Moore Dec 2008

The Sources And Meaning Of The Conversion Of Claude Mckay, Cecilia Moore

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

In this paper, delivered during the 2007 annual meeting at Saint Meinrad Archabbey, Moore discusses the conversion experience of the controversial Jamaican poet and novelist Claude McKay. An influential artist of the Harlem Renaissance, McKay was a troubled and complex man. The spiritual journey of this former agnostic is moving and inspirational.


Racial Reconciliation In Christian Ethics: Toward Starting A Conversation, Bryan Massingale Dec 2008

Racial Reconciliation In Christian Ethics: Toward Starting A Conversation, Bryan Massingale

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

In this article, delivered originally in 1998 at Marquette University, the author confronts the reality of racism by introducing the need for racial reconciliation. Addressing such issues as social structures and evangelical approaches to the question of race, Massingale ends with a critique of the approach of Catholic theologians and ethicists to racial justice. In the end, Massingale remarks that for Catholics the legacy of slavery continues to hinder an openness to the reality of Africans and African Americans in the Church and in society.

The Implications Of Critical Race Theory (Crt) On Two Significant Findings Of A Study Of Black Catholics On The Social Frontier, Robert Bartlett Dec 2008

The Implications Of Critical Race Theory (Crt) On Two Significant Findings Of A Study Of Black Catholics On The Social Frontier, Robert Bartlett

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Delivered during the 2007 meeting at St. Meinrad Archabbey, Bartlett discusses the use of Critical Race Theory (CRT) on qualitative research projects involving marginalized persons, particularly African American Catholics in predominantly white parishes. He concludes that CRT calls us to action to end racism. That call must be heard especially by Catholic Church leadership.

1807-2007: Whose Bicentennial And Whose Abolition?, Cyprian Davis O.S.B.

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

From The Editor’S Desk, Cyprian Davis O.S.B.

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Our 30th Anniversary Edition of The Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium is even more exciting than our first volume. The two questions posed at the 1978 meeting – whether one can be a serious black Catholic theologian, and whether one can at the same time be authentically black – have been answered unambiguously and in the affirmative. Our 30-year history, the scholarship and leadership of our members, and this Journal are testament to that fact. Many of us remain on the margins, not truly belonging in our respective disciplines or fitting in at our institutions. Slowly, however, that …

Application At The Bedside: Moving From Knowing How To Knowing Why In Nursing, Joyel J. Brule Dec 2008

Application At The Bedside: Moving From Knowing How To Knowing Why In Nursing, Joyel J. Brule

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

The nursing field is beginning to emerge as a profession with curricula that emphasis nursing as a discipline distinguished from a medically dominated paradigm. This changing focus places emphasis on professional competence upon graduation and entry into practice to foster fitness for purpose within an environment of continuously changing expectations of the nurse by society. Despite a growing body of research on transition into practice, a gap exists as to when this transition occurs and how this finding may influence educational preparation of nurses. This qualitative, exploratory study examined nurses’ perceptions of their transformation from novice to professional practitioner by …

On The Many Flavors Of Capitalism Or Reflections On Schumpeter's Ghost, John Henry Schlegel Dec 2008

On The Many Flavors Of Capitalism Or Reflections On Schumpeter's Ghost, John Henry Schlegel

Buffalo Law Review

Most legal scholars treat capitalism as a genus with one species. The appearance of several books that argue to the contrary suggests that it is sensible to revisit this assumption. Discussion begins by considering the constructed nature of markets, the importance of market systems, and the role of financings as the factor distinguishing capitalism from other forms of a market economy. Thereafter, four articulations of the varieties of capitalism are reviewed: the classic Marxist one, one by a political economist, another by a pair of comparative political scientists, and third by a trio of economists. This review leads to a …
