S2:E40 Undoing the Knots of Anti-Blackness with Maureen O’Connell
In this episode, Christopher and Maggie have a conversation with Maureen O'Connell, Associate Professor at LaSalle University. We discuss her book Undoing the Knots: Five Generations of American Catholic Anti-Blackness. We discuss how the white church, not just the Catholic Church, has been complicit in propogating anti-blackness and what we can do to undo those knots. We discuss how racism is baked into our society in its laws and customs. And we discuss how we as Christians can work towards justice.
Christopher and Maggie are spiritual directors that like talking about spiritual things. Spiritual direction is a listening ministry that creates a sacred space for you to listen to God, see where God is at work in your life, and grow in awareness of who you were created to be. We would love to hear from you! Email Christopher and Maggie at SDTASinfo@gmail.com.
