Womanist Leadership with the Rev. Melanie C. Jones

What this episode covers

The Future is Womanist In July 2019, Rev. Melanie C. Jones joined the Katie Geneva Cannon Center for Womanist Leadership at Union Presbyterian Seminary as its newest director and next visionary leader. Jones maintains, “Building on an enduring legacy of womanism in theological education with Dr. Katie Geneva Cannon as its leading trailblazer and foremother, The Future is Womanist. The compounding moral assaults facing Black women and marginalized populations in a contemporary world require a wisdom-bearing platform that cultivates freedom and flourishing and a justice-seeking program that enlivens the liberating reign of God in word and deed. This is the future of the Katie Geneva Cannon Center for Womanist Leadership, the premier center for womanist theory and practice in the nation.” Jones teaches Ethics, Theology and Culture at Union Presbyterian Seminary in addition to directing the Center. She is a womanist ethicist, millennial preacher, and intellectual activist.
