Download or read book An Examination of the Oblate Sisters of Providence as Religious Women of Color Educators and Leaders written by Camelia Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the Roman Catholic religious order, the Oblate Sisters of Providence (OSP), and their roles as educators, religious women, and community leaders from the antebellum period through the Reconstruction era.In 1828, the Oblate's founder, Mother Mary Lange, created the religious order alongside Sulpician Priest, Father James Nicholas Joubert. The Oblate Sisters' primary mission was to educate African American girls despite the pressures to the contrary in the slaveholding state of Maryland. Also, the Oblate sisters had founded their school, Saint Frances Academy, which offered African American girls a religious, classical, and vocational education. The school endeavored to give students a skillset to survive in the local economy while allowing young girls and religious nuns to positively define notions of Black womanhood through the Catholic faith.As the first female Catholic religious order of African descent in the United States, the Oblate sisters endured opposition from both the Catholic Church and the community of Baltimore. Even though the strict consecrated life required by the church could be perceived as oppressive of women, especially Black women who lived in a society restricted by enslavement, the Oblates successfully built a sanctuary community that offered a degree of freedom for young African American girls and women.This thesis argues that the Oblate's actions offered Black girls and women possibilities to resist societal expectations of Black womanhood. However, empowering Black girls and women to specifically reject these expectations was not the order's intent. The community did not see themselves as activist or Black feminists. Instead, the Oblates embraced the Cult of True Womanhood, which restricted women significantly. However, by following these traditional gender standards, the Oblates upended racist expectations of Black womanhood. As a result,their contributions during the antebellum period through Reconstruction aided the educational advancement of African American girls and women and challenged the intersectional oppression they encountered in the Catholic Church, the city of Baltimore, Maryland, and American society at large.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Dartmouth Medal for Outstanding Reference Publication of 1994, the first edition of Black Women in America broke ground - pulling together for the first time all of the research in this vast but underrepresented field to provide one of the strongest building blocks of Black Women's Studies. Hailed by Eric Foner of Columbia University (for a Lingua Franca survey) as "one of those publishing events which changes the way we look at a field," it simultaneously filled a void in the literature and sparked new research and concepts regarding African American women in history. Since the first edition was published, a new generation of American black women has flourished, demanding this landmark reference be brought up to date. Women such as Venus and Serena Williams, Condoleezza Rice, Carol Mosley-Braun, Ruth Simmons, and Ann Fudge have become household names for their remarkable contributions to sports, politics, academia, and business. In three magnificent volumes, Black Women in America, Second Edition celebrates the remarkable achievements of black women throughout history, highlights their ongoing contributions in America today, and covers the new research the first edition helped to generate. Features: * Includes more than 150 new entries, plus revisions and updates to all previous entries * Contains 500 illustrations, many published here for the first times * Includes over 335 biographies, many newly prepared for this publication * Offers sidebars on interesting aspects of the history and culture of black women * Provides a bibliography for each entry, plus a major bibliographical essay * Features a chronology and a comprehensive index For a complete listing of contents, visit www.oup.com/us/bwia

Book excerpt: Since 1845, along the River Raisin in the southeastern Michigan town of Monroe, the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) have distinguished themselves as educators, activists, and Catholic pioneers. At the congregation's peak, the motherhouse dispatched nearly 1,600 nuns to more than 100 schools across metropolitan Detroit and several states. For 175 years, the sisters taught the three Rs and the meaning of faith to nearly 700,000 students and established important metro Detroit institutions such as Marygrove College, Immaculata and Marian High Schools, and St. Mary Academy. Widely known by their initials, the IHMs have extended their reach worldwide. Monroe IHM members have served in key roles at the Vatican, as leaders of organizations representing Catholic sisters in the United States, as missionaries in Third World countries, and as groundbreaking activists and theologians. The Monroe IHMs today also attract lay women and men who dedicate themselves to the congregation's values and goals by becoming IHM Associates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In eleven thought-provoking essays covering the early nineteenth through the early twentieth centuries, Negotiating Boundaries of Southern Womanhood examines the complex intersections of race, class, and gender and the ways in which southern women dealt with "the powers that be" and, in some instances, became those powers. Elitism, status, and class were always filtered through a prism of race and gender in the South, and women of both races played an important role in maintaining as well as challenging the hierarchies that existed to claim a share of power for themselves in a male-dominated world.

Book excerpt: This work documents the many roles filled by Southern blacks in the last decades of slavery, the Civil War years, and the following period of Reconstruction. African Americans suffered and resisted bondage in virtually every aspect of their lives, but persevered through centuries of brutality to their present place at the center of American life. Utilizing statements made by former slaves and other sources close to them, the author takes a close look at the culture and lifestyle of this proud people in the final decades of slavery, their experiences of being in the military and fighting in the Civil War, and the active role taken by the Southern blacks during Reconstruction.
