Mujerista Hermeneutics

Mujerista Hermeneutics is an interpretive approach that emphasizes understanding religious texts and experiences from the perspective of Latin American women. It recognizes the unique cultural, social, and gendered contexts that shape their faith and worldview. This approach challenges traditional interpretations that may overlook or marginalize women’s experiences, aiming to uplift their voices and highlight issues like inequality and oppression. By doing so, Mujerista Hermeneutics seeks to foster a more inclusive and equitable understanding of spirituality and scripture, enriching religious discourse with the insights of women who often face societal burdens and marginalization.
