In Religion and Liberation,

Mujeristas Collective addresses a vital part of Ada María Isasi-Díaz’s vision of mujerismo: liberation theology, a grassroots Christian movement that emphasizes action to achieve freedom from social, political, and economic oppression. The movement–which the Vatican criticized and actively undermined–was developed by Latin American Roman Catholics in the 1950s and 1960s as a moral response to the poverty and social injustice in the region. 

Containing visual and written works by women of color and Latinas across the U.S., “Religion and Liberation” explores our layered relationships with spirituality and organized religion itself, and confronts the entangled natures of politics and faith. It delves into the question of whether there is a future in religion as a means to liberation, and where that might begin.
