Description:

This course meets both religious studies requirements and state certification requirements for education majors in a non-Western, Third-World humanities course. It examines contemporary Catholic theology by looking at perspectives generated by Asian, African, indigenous and Central American persons. After examining several of these "voices" and hearing their stories both in print and through film, we will then explore what they have to say about such areas in Catholic theology as church, God, Jesus, sin, liberation and redemption.
