Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Caorongjin: Stub


The '''Black Catholic Theological Symposium''' is a Catholic organization that was founded in 1978 to promote theological education and promote the research of black Catholics.

== History ==
In 1978, the first meeting of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium was organised by [[Thaddeus Posey]], [[O.F.M.]] and sponsored by the [[National Black Catholic Clergy Caucus]] in [[Baltimore, Maryland]]. It worked on defining [[black theology]] and clarifying its relationship with the [[black consciousness movement]] and related understandings of violence and separatism. Including theologians such as [[Thea Bowman]], [[M. Shawn Copeland]], [[Jamie T. Phelps]], and [[Cyprian Davis]], its proceedings were published as ''Theology: A Portrait in Black''.<ref name="America">Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

The second meeting of the Symposium was held in 1979 on the theme of "Nguba Saba." It would not hold another meeting until 1991, convened by [[Jamie T. Phelps]], [[O.P.]], and has held meetings annually ever since.<ref></ref>
