Mildred M. Hutchinson Professor of Urban Ministries

About

I am the Mildred M. Hutchinson Professor of urban ministries at the Claremont School of Theology. I am also a member of the faculty of the Claremont Graduate University School of Religions and occasionally teach as an adjunct in the School of  Politics and Economics at the Claremont Graduate University. As a political scientist by training with an expertise in urban policy, my research is situated at the intersection of politics and religion. At the moment I am completing a book on progressive prophetic activism in the US.I argue that contemporary religious activism takes place in two distinct social locations: the borderlands ad among cosmopolitans. I am especially interested in new emerging forms of interreligious activism.

I teach courses on World Religions in Dialogue, Justice Organizing in Response to Globalization, Religion and Politics, American Prophetic Traditions, and Ministry in Immigrant Contexts, and Immigration as a Human Rights Crisis..
