Dr Chanequa Walker-Barnes
from Her Story Speaks Hosted by Andrea Miller
Dr. Chanequa Walker-Barnes is a clinical psychologist, public theologian, and minister whose work focuses upon healing the legacies of racial and gender oppression. She earned her M.S. and Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Miami and her Masters of Divinity from Duke Divinity School and is currently an associate professor at Mercer University. In my conversation today Dr. Chanequa Walker-Barnes shares her story of growing up as a Black girl in the south with an early awareness of racism. She shares about her faith journey and her passion to fight for justice when she was still young. Much of our conversion focuses on the crucial need to bring the voices of black women forward. As Chanequa says, “If we truly hope to work towards racial reconciliation, the perspectives of women of color must be moved from margin to center.”
