About

Anne Blankenship, a doctoral candidate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, is busy editing the final chapters of dissertation, "Steps to a New World Order: Ecumenism and Racial Integration within the World War II Incarceration of Japanese Americans." Her research investigates religious responses to injustice and religious identity formation in the face of persecution.  The dissertation analyzes the response of American Protestant churches to the Japanese American incarceration and reveals the ways in which the injustice transformed Asian American Christianity.

As a teaching fellow at UNC-CH, Anne offers research seminars on religion and civil rights as well as introductions to American Religions, New Religious Movements, global Christian history and biblical interpretation.
