As a child, I dreamt of dying a martyr. Growing up the youngest of seven children in a faith-driven family, my evangelical Christian congregation largely shaped my life. I often heard stories of missionaries killed while serving in "unreached" parts of the world (locations that have never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ), and I morbidly wished for a similar fate. I imagined that if I proved that I devoted my life to someone or something else, no one could speak ill of my legacy. From the second that I heard about the Minerva Fellowship during my freshman year at Union, I knew that I wanted to become a Fellow. However, it wasn't until this past year that I began thinking critically about all the complexities of the philanthropic sector, and questioned what right I have to travel to a foreign country to "help" the locals. Now that I have secured a Minerva Fellowship placement in Thailand for the 2021-2022 cycle, I want to understand how I can effectively aid the local population without harming the community due to my cultural ignorance. <\/p>" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "navDate" ] }, "value": { "en": [ "May 7th at 12:11pm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "license" ] }, "value": { "en": [ "http:\/\/rightsstatements.org\/vocab\/InC-EDU\/1.0\/" ] } } ], "within": "https://arches.union.edu/steinmetzsymposium", "partOf": [ { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/steinmetzsymposium/metadata/iiifmanifest3collection/default.jsonld", "type": "Manifest" } ], "items": [{ "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/canvas/p1", "type": "Canvas", "label": { "en": [ "Video:Disillusioning the Sacred Sector: How the White Savior Complex, Mother Teresa\u2019s Misleading Legacy, and Nonprofits Complicate the Effectiveness of Charity Work"]}, "width": 1280, "height": 900, "duration": 1169320, "items": [ { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/page/p1", "type": "AnnotationPage", "items": [ { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/annotation/p1", "type": "Annotation", "motivation": "painting", "body": { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/55024/iiif/6c5babe7-5fb4-4092-a755-4aedd77ab469/full/full/0/DisillusioningTheSacredSectorStack-AbigailStack.mp4", "type": "Video", "format": "video/mp4", "duration": 1169320, "height": 900, "width": 1280 }, "target": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/canvas/p1" } ] } ] } ], "structures": [ { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/range/r1", "type": "Range", "label": { "en": [ "Disillusioning the Sacred Sector: How the White Savior Complex, Mother Teresa\u2019s Misleading Legacy, and Nonprofits Complicate\u2026" ] }, "items": [ { "id": "https://arches.union.edu/do/b8dd7ba4-c84a-4900-97c3-0fafcdc32a42/iiif/canvas/p1", "type": "Canvas" } ] } ] }
