Send us a textLiberation Theology was strong in the 1960s and 1970s and 1980s.  It was mostly Catholic, and was concentrated in Latin America, but there were variants of it in South Africa and in the  American Black Community, especially in the Detroit area.  James C. Cone is a name that stands out.  Those interested in an excellent discussion might look at Faith in the City by Angela D. Dillard.  I read extensively in this topic and even met some liberation theologians.  This is my summary of their major teachings and themes.  This is Part I of a two part presentation.  The next podcast will focus upon Populorum Progressio (The Progress of People), the astonishing 1987 encyclical by Paul VI.  This was a class zoom lecture during the pandemic.  Welcome to class.
