The Prophetic Burden for Philadelphia’S Catholic Puerto Ricans, 1950-1980
THE PROPHETIC BURDEN FOR PHILADELPHIA’S CATHOLIC PUERTO RICANS, 1950-1980 ______________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board ______________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILSOPHY ______________________________________________________________________ by Adán E. Stevens-Díaz May 2018 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Terry Rey, Advisory Chair, Department of Religion Dr. Nyasha Junior, Department of Religion Dr. Zain Abdullah, Department of Religion Dr. Pablo Vila, Department of Sociology, Temple University © Copyright 2018 by Adán E. Stevens-Díaz All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on lay Catholic ministry to Puerto Ricans in Philadelphia when Frank Rizzo was mayor. Gramsci’s concept of “organic intellectuals” is employed to explain the praxis of the Philadelphia Young Lords, an organization formed in a Puerto Rican neighborhood during the confrontational politics of the 1970s. The dissertation advances previous scholarship on the Young Lords by offering reasons to consider these youthful leaders as lay Catholic advocates of social justice in Philadelphia and describes the role of faith convictions as they pursued social justice in the style of the biblical prophetic burden. Through interviews and textual analysis, the dissertation traces the evolution of lay volunteerism before the Second Vatican Council as foundational to the Young Lords’ application of liberation theology. The Young Lords in Philadelphia also followed the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party’s definition of the people’s multiracial identity and the Nationalists’ defense of Catholic principles. Their experiences are inserted into the general history of Philadelphia, a city which Quakers had founded as a cluster of urban villages, producing a distinctive pattern of ethnic enclaves of Philadelphia’s row house neighborhoods. -
