In Memory of Her – Dr. Jann Aldredge-Clanton

In Memory of Her

Dr. Jann Aldredge-Clanton, May 3, 1946-September 20, 2024

WATER laments the death of our colleague the Rev. Dr. Jann Aldredge-Clanton who died on September 20, 2024. Jann was a Christian feminist whose work on gender, anti-racism, music, and liturgy shaped a generation through her work with Christian Feminists Today.

She gave several WATERtalks in our Feminist Conversations in Religion Series:
The Gathering: A Womanist Church—Origins, Stories, Sermons, and Litanies” with Rev. Irie Lynne Session, Rev. Dr. Kamilah Hall Sharp (2021)
Building Bridges: Letha Dawson Scanzoni and Friends” with Dr. Kendra Weddle (2020)
She Lives! Sophia Wisdom Works in the World” (2015)

We send our sympathy to her family, friends and colleagues. We celebrate her signal contributions with deep gratitude.
