| Summary: | An informal question and answer session hosted by Rev. Paul Germond at a Catholic Worker Friday Night Meeting in New York. Germond begins the discussion with a short talk about apartheid in South Africa, giving some philosophical perspectives on it (particularly focusing on Antonio Gramsci's idea of cultural hegemony and how it relates to South Africa). He then gives an overview of the Kairos document, a statement by South African theologians that challenged the church's position on apartheid. Finally, he opens the floor up to a long discussion, specifically about how or even if nonviolence is an appropriate form of protest against apartheid. Comments cut off by end of tape. |
