The CLGS Latinx Roundtable

and live a life of dignity. Spiritual, faith-based, and religious leadership plays a crucial role in this vision, which is why the LRT is committed to serving as a space where we can critically reflect on the theological, political, cultural, and spiritual insights located at the intersection of queerness, Latinidad, and faith/spirituality. Drawing heavily (though not exclusively) from the Christian tradition and the insights of this 3-way intersection, we dream of a world where queer Latinx spiritual perspectives take active leadership in the journey toward what Christians refers to as the Kingdom of God, a utopic eschatological vision where all persons can thrive. DESCRIPTION:
To promote human flourishing, the LRT operates as a virtual gathering space that explores the intersection of queerness, Latinidad, and spirituality/faith. This space features:
- Academic engagement with scholars who research various components of this 3-way intersection.
- Group discussions and communal reflections around published theological or spiritual works.
- Communal discernments on matters of socio-political activism considering the signs of the times.
- Celebration of the joyful and vibrant components of the 3-way intersection.
- Reflections on intersectionality beyond race, gender, sexual orientation, and faith/spirituality.
- Opportunities for service and community building
- Invitations to pray, worship, meditate, and discern who we are called to be.
