So excited for this 9am roundtable on Catholicism and Colonialism! Panelists include @clark_ems @brandonbayne @TisaWenger Jenn Scheper Hughes, and Katie Holscher!!!
And apologies for not remembering that Katie’s handle is @KathleenHolsche. The panel was awesome!
During Q&A, @brandonbayne adds that the border between the U.S. and Mexico continues to define for many white Americans the line between what is “cultured” vs “savage,” safe vs dangerous, celebrated vs unworthy...
#CatholicismAndColonialsm
Matthew Smith: “Yes, Slavery *IS* a colonial institution.” With indebtedness to @syljohns.
And lots of heads nodding in agreement in audience.
@clark_ems points out that the entanglement of anti-blackness and colonialism continues to play out today, with real consequences for black Catholics (and others).
#CatholicismAndColonialsm
Jennifer Scheper Hughes: “The colony imagined as the mystical body of Christ emerged as one of the most potent ordering narratives for the spiritual regime of colonialism.”
#CatholicismAndColonialsm
Scheper Hughes also brought this powerful visualization of the corpus coloniae mysticum.
