This course will invite students to engage traditions of Latin American and U.S. Black liberation theologies in their origins and developments, theological content, and transformations in the contemporary period. In resistance to a dominant narrative that categorizes liberation theologies as past or fatally flawed phenomena, this course will trace how liberationist methods and praxes have survived bad-faith critics while responding and adapting to methodological problems and blind spots. Students will be invited to apply a liberationist hermeneutic to their own contexts and evaluate for themselves if this way of doing theology continues to hold promise today.
