Navigating Identity and Privilege in Multifaith Engagement on a College Campus
Harter, Joel; Castor, Maggie; Seigler, Carolina P.; Abrahams, Diana
Journal of College and Character, v19 n1 p4-17 2018
To be successful global citizens, students need greater religious literacy and competency engaging diverse religions and worldviews. Effective multifaith work in higher education is a form of intercultural engagement: When done well, this work does not belong just to religious life professionals but involves a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach. This article explores how issues of privilege and intersectional identity impact multifaith work, drawing on specific case studies and on relevant scholarship in race and gender studies, intercultural studies, and social justice studies. Practical suggestions are offered for introducing identity and privilege to students in the context of multifaith engagement.
