This painting invites a new conversation around St. Augustine. In the context of long-standing and lingering consequences of slavery and colonialism, this artwork invites us all into conversation around what it means for the Catholic Church to have an African man as one of its greatest writers and thinkers.
In order to reconcile the two, St. Augustine’s African identity had to be suppressed by racially coding him as white.
And it’s possible he was black.
We know Augustine was born in Thagaste, Numidia, a trading town surrounded by forest in North Africa. So he was African.
While his father was a Roman colonist, it is believed that his mother Monica was Berber, an ethnic group indigenous to North Africa. So he may have had darker skin.
Europe has whitewashed all the images of these saints to fit a narrative.
I was blown away always hearing of towns and cities named after this saint.
The Conversion of Saint Augustine by Fra Angelico "It cannot be that the son of these tears should be lost." — Saint Ambrose to Saint Monica
TIL that Saint Augustine wrote his own version of “love the sinner, hate the sin” when he exhorted Christians to act cum dilectione hominum et odio vitiorum (with love of men and hatred of vice)
