FORGiNG VOICE Film

A short film that explores gender, race, & theology with pioneering feminist & womanist scholars in religion.

Kate and her co-creator Dr. Ashley Theuring sat down with eleven pioneering theologians sit down to share their stories as some of the first women to pursue careers in religion and theology. They share their experiences, challenges and ultimately how they were able to succeed in forging their own voices in an often times hostile environment.
