ABSTRACT

There was no information on a Chicano Theology in the libraries of the USA or anywhere else in the world for that matter. There were theologies of liberation from Latin America, Asia, Africa and the USA. Racism is the cornerstone of capitalism and its mother is imperialism. Hernan Cortez is the modern father of both capitalism and imperialism. The concept of God is maternal and in the New World as exemplified by the great miraculous apparition de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe and La Morenita, the Dark Virgin. It is not paternalistic European Catholic, Protestant and Calvinistic like in the Old World. Imperialistic nations preach brotherhood and sisterhood, but practice enemyhood. They do not understand cosmicity. Cosmicity is the incorporation of two or more cultures into one. It would be obvious that if our concept of God is maternal, then our mothers and sisters would be the nuclei of our families.
