SUMMARY:Prayer as Political Response and Accompaniment
DESCRIPTION:Yara González-Justiniano, PhD, Vanderbilt Divinity School\nOur Life in Common\n \nWebinar Description: \nIn Dr. González-Justiniano’s work with hope and ecclesial social participation, prayer serves as a form of political witness through its proclamation and accompaniment among participants, even as remote participants. She proposes examining this practice through the lens of cultural organizing as a strategy for unity and resistance.\nView the whole series\nRegister for Free Below! \n\n \nYara González-Justiniano, PhD \nRev. Dr. Yara González-Justiniano is Assistant Professor of Religion, Psychology, and Culture with emphasis on Latinx Studies and affiliated faculty of the Center for Latin American, Caribbean, and Latinx Studies at Vanderbilt University. She is a practical theologian and minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Her educational journey of interdisciplinarity informs the ways in which she approaches theological studies. The overarching themes of her scholarship are grounded in questions that pertain to practices of social justice, liberation, community, macro psychological analysis, hope, and art. In her most recent book, Centering Hope as a Sustainable Decolonial Practice: Esperanza en Práctica (2022), she wrestles with answering the question of what hope looks like amid socioeconomic crisis. Her interdisciplinary approach to this inquiry grounds itself in ethnographic research in hopes of finding practices that enable a hope that can sustain the collective. Her second book, tentatively titled Exhausting All Possibilities: Healing in Place, will explore issues of place and displacement in colonized contexts.\n \n\n\n\n\n
