Итог: | Within Asian/American feminist theology, this article addresses specifically Korean/American feminist theological discourse of chong. I argue that by employing racialized signifiers such as han and chong, we are marginalizing ourselves. Such discursive identity markers of Korean/American feminist theologians have been constructed by utilizing colonialist historiography and methods that the Japanese first used in their efforts to justify colonial rule of Korea (1910-1945), thereby reproducing and reinforcing the racialized discourses of the colonial era. This author implores Asian/American pastoral theologians to engage in a more critical, complex analysis of power during the period of Japanese colonial rule (1910-1945). I argue for the importance of historiographical analysis as being central to understanding how Korean/American theological identity came to embrace the cultural signifiers it does. Our task, then, as critical feminist liberation theologians is to engage in ongoing critiques and analyses of patri-kyriarchal power in colonialism(s) and imperialism(s) in order to dismantle its structures and influences. |
