The Friday session was “Buddhist and Christian Resources for Addressing Sexual Violence.” All the panelists focused on violence in sanghas or churches in which they’d been engaged.

She was named one of six "spiritual innovators” for the new millennium by Time Magazine in 2000, and she is in great demand as a speaker.⁴ She is a highly regarded Buddhist studies scholar, author of, most recently, Dharma Matters: Women, Race, and Tantra (2020).⁵ She, in this autobiography, calls herself a Baptist-Buddhist: I call myself a “Baptist-Buddhist” not to be cute or witty.

Abstract: This paper seeks to bring together the insights of critical mixed race theory (MultiCrit) along with the wisdom of contemporary psycho-spirituality internal family systems to imagine how various streams of Buddhist and Christian contemplative traditions might be broadly synthesized to support the lives of those who identify as multiracial or multireligious. While the paper focuses primarily on intra- personal and interpersonal relational engagement, suggestions will also be made to support the transformation of societal structures and systems from a spirituality of compassion. The paper concludes that Buddhist and Christian wisdom traditions aimed at embracing and transforming the self will be heavily strengthened through dialogue with Critical Mixed Race Theory. Additionally, I propose that the wisdom and practices of Buddhist and Christian spiritualities of compassion can work to guide and sustain those who are committed to actions that foster racial justice in an increasingly pluralistic world. 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z
