14. Gender, Sexuality, and Justice
Manage episode 322398239 series 3298125
D.L. Mayfield and Peter Choi talk about our theme for March: Gender, Sexuality, and Justice. They address the harmful effects of Christian patriarchy and the fallacy of the “two-thousand-years-of-church-history-can’t-be-wrong” argument. Is there really such a thing as a timeless and monolithic Christian teaching on gender and sexuality? Is progressive Christianity truly free of patriarchal thinking? How do we overcome fears of the slippery slope? What does it look like to imagine new ways of being gendered? And how might we pursue this work together in community?
A few resources mentioned:
- The Making of Biblical Womanhood by Beth Allison Barr
- God Is A Black Woman by Christena Cleveland
- D.L.'s forthcoming book on Dorothy Day: Unruly Saint
- Resurrection Hope: A Future Where Black Lives Matter by Kelly Brown Douglas
- Public Vows: A History of Marriage and the Nation by Nancy F. Cott
- Marriage between Males by Craig Williams
