Black bishops press for greater influence in Catholic Church
New York bishops at St. Charles Borromeo in Harlem urged more black representation in church hierarchy and liturgy reflecting black culture. Speakers said little progress since last year's pastoral letter What We Have Seen and Heard, though minority committees have grown. Sister Lynch noted no black priest in Syracuse diocese and only one black nun, calling for role models. Braxton urged educational expansion and leadership training to raise black leaders within the church. Seven of the ten signatory bishops also spoke, highlighting black spirituality as a church strength.
