Newsletter No 2/2022 - When We See One Another: The Ethical Leadership of Women of African Descent in Scholarship and Art
Author: Amélé Ekué
“As members of the ‘beloved community,’ Black women are responsible, along with others who care, for collecting facts to determine whether injustice exists, whether a law, an (sic) historical situation, existing social relations elevate or debase human beingness. Moral agents must evaluate every situation as to whether it contributes to or impedes the growth of human personality and genuine community.”
With these words the American ethicist, prolific theologian and womanist scholar, late Katie G. Cannon set the tone for an ongoing conversation that transcends not only generational and gender boundaries, but bears relevance for ethical leadership worldwide.
