Abstract

This study addresses the collective voices of Black Jesuits in the United States. The purpose of this heuristic inquiry was to unearth the participants’ lived anti-Black experiences within the Society of Jesus. The qualitative study utilized questionnaires with open ended questions, and the responses were coded and categorized into themes to elucidate the complexity of anti-Blackness in a predominately white male religious order.
