The first of a two-semester seminar, this course is an opportunity to identify and develop your personal spirituality through the study of Black Liberation Theologies and dismantling racism. You will integrate insights from the philosophy of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the theologies of Black and Womanist theologians in reflecting on your own community-based engagement in the dismantling of racism and building “the beloved community” envisioned by Dr. King. This two-semester sequence meets one day each week for two hours in both the Fall and Spring semesters and requires significant participation in community-based and/or service-learning. Both semesters are required to fulfill COR 2 or ETHS 480H. Cross-listed RS 308
