When Christopher Columbus arrived in the New World in 1492, there
began a new way of the cross, traced for five hundred years in the
lives of the poor and oppressed peoples of the Americas. These
short meditations on the stations--by such figures as Gustavo
Guiterrez, Enrique Dussel, Leonardo Boff, Helder Camara, Elsa
Tamez, and Jon Sobrino--reflect on the passion of Christ against
the background of conquest. They write, as Virgil Elizondo says in
his preface, to "invite our readers to take this journey with us,
to share our suffering, to experience our crucifixion, and to taste
in anticipation our Easter joy. We invite all--rich and poor, black
and brown and white, clerics and lay people--to a profound
conversion that will stimulate us to build a better world in the
Americas, a world of the new humanity enjoying justice, freedom,
and love."
