Abstract

The author accepted an invitation from James H. Robinson to participate in Operation Crossroads Africa (OCA) in 1971. She had a desire to travel to Africa in memory of her ancestors who had been forcibly driven from their homeland, and her OCA group was the largest group of African American Crossroaders since the program began in 1958. The lessons she learned building a library alongside Liberian coworkers apply to her role today as a theological educator; the contextual nature of womanist epistemology is similar to the international work camp: both require the participant to cross new boundaries with care.
