THEO 326 - U.S. Latinx Theology and Cultura: Imagining Teologia Latinamente! 3 Credit Hours
Contemporary Latinx scholarship has shaped and contributed directly to the broader U.S. theological and academic discourse by exploring and reflecting on the lived experiences and social locations among Latinx communities living in the United States. U.S. Latina/x/o theologies have claimed on lo cotidiano (our everyday life), the daily lived human experience, and the concrete particularities of la vida diaria as a source of theology -the way we know and reflect about God and God’s self-revelation in the ordinary. This course explores contemporary Latina/x theological voices reflecting on the concreteness of reality to think and imagine theology Latinamente. Yet, this is an ongoing and en conjunto task as the multilayered complexities of the Latinx communities continue changing and remain invisible within the dominant culture. Students in this course will actively reflect and relate to their lived human experiences and social locations as they discern their call to fully thrive and contribute to their communities. There will be opportunities to meet in communal settings and engage in vocational discernment through a Latinx framework.
This course will satisfy the core area requirement in theology.
This course will satisfy the core requirement in multicultural studies.
