March 15, 2012 Vanderhaar Symposium at First Congregational Church
The struggle for justice is the main avenue to achieve peace–fullness of life. In the 21st century there is an urgent need to heal enmity and bridge rifts between persons and among communities and nations. Today reconciliation is the face of justice. In order to enable reconciliatory practices we need to engender and strengthen compassion and create solidarity among all people,between the human species and other species, and between humans and the biosphere.
Since the 1980’s Dr. Isasi-Diaz has focused on the elaboration of mujerista theology based on the religious understandings and practices of Latinas living in the U.S. She has lectured throughout the country as well as internationally on issues of justice, and Latina/o theology. She co-authored the first Latina theology book published in the USA.
