Feminine Mysticism in Art, Women's Spirituality Book Award, California Institute of Integral Studies
It is a great honor to have California Institute of Integral Studies recognize Feminine Mysticism in Art with a Book Award. It is also a great honor to have Arisika Razak as a contributing writer to the book. She contributed an article titled “ Contemporary Images Of Spirituality and Resistance Amongst African Americans.” This article includes some powerful imagery by AfraShe Asungi, Yasmin Hernandez, Lily Bernard and Abba Yahudah.
Below is some information from their website, which includes the list with FMA in it. Thank You CIIS!
WOMEN'S SPIRITUALITY BOOK AWARDS & 25TH ANNIVERSARY LIBRARY COLLECTION
The Women's Spirituality program CIIS is pleased to honor one hundred of the best new books in the genre of Women's Spirituality. These books include a broad diversity of scholars and artists who are contributing to the emerging academic field of Women's Spirituality. The Women's Spirituality program at CIIS is one of the few places where students can earn a PhD or MA that centers on Women's Spirituality and eco-social justice as a global field of studies. Our curriculum emphasizes three tracks: women's mysteries, sacred arts, and healing; women and world religions; and feminist/eco-feminist philosophy and activism. Our faculty and students are especially grateful to the many hundreds of Women's Spirituality authors and artists who inspire and nourish the work we do in higher education to support women's spiritual freedoms, cultural agency, and eco-social justice around the world. After nomination, the books donated to CIIS and will be included in the Women's Spirituality Twenty-fifth Anniversary Library Collection.
