Sister Joanne Doi MM, PhD is Associate Professor of Intercultural Theologies and Ministries in the CTU ICSM Department. As a Maryknoll Sister, she served among the Aymara indigenous people in the Southern Andes of Peru for many years and maintains a solidarity and deep concern for Indigenous peoples, pedagogy and ways of knowing. Born and raised in Los Angeles in a Japanese Catholic community, her parents and grandparents were detained at Manzanar in the Eastern Sierras of California and Heart Mountain, Wyoming during WWII. Her doctoral work at the Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley focused on the decolonial pilgrimages to these sites of detention that provide a way of inhabiting shadowed ground of historical injury and collective memory, expressing a spiritual political practice of dangerous memory towards restorative justice, reconciliation, compassion and solidarity. She taught at the Franciscan School of Theology in Berkeley before coming to Chicago as Co-Director of the Maryknoll Sisters Integration (formation) Program.
