Abstract

This project proposes and tests a curriculum to help disadvantaged youth think creatively about the dynamics of anger and power. Based on a review of current resources--especially feminist and womanist theological literature--the project develops a feminist theology of anger, an analytic survey instrument, and a 10-session curriculum, and tries these materials with a group of disadvantaged youth and a comparison group. Disadvantaged youth indicate more anger in hypothetical situations, particularly those involving disrespect. Retelling Bible stories is effective in communicating with disadvantaged youth.
