Conversation in Divinity with Dwight N. Hopkins

"Black Religions and Spiritualities in Global Perspectives"
Chicago Cultural Center
March 9, 2006
5:30 – 7:00 p.m.

Dwight N. Hopkins, Professor of Theology in the Divinity School, works in the areas of contemporary models of theology, black theology and liberation theology. In this “conversation,” Professor Hopkins will discuss the mission of the International Association on Black Religions and Spiritualities, established in January 2006 to build a network of black peoples internationally whose primary concerns revolve around issues of justice and human dignity for darker skin communities and countries worldwide. Association membership is drawn from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America, England, and the USA. The Association strives to inspire hope that a better world is possible—a world where cooperation, peaceful relations and joint action programs rule. The Association focuses on a spirituality of justice, compassion, education and advocacy.
