Addressing the preacher’s need to identify their social locations as a preacher, this article explores three critical approaches for homiletics in the postcolonial context of migration: interdisciplinary, intercultural, and interreligious. The interdisciplinary approach to homiletics was sought in the New Homiletic movement but has yet to be fully pursued. Continued dialogue with other disciplines is urgent in a context where complicated postcolonial realities must be addressed. The intercultural issues of preaching are equally important in this context. This paper, therefore, sketches the changing ecclesial landscape where a monolingual homogeneous white congregation and preacher are no longer a norm. How can preaching reflect multivocality and prevent linguistic minority members from being tokenized? The power imbalance embedded in the language of the preacher needs consideration. The interreligious approach has only recently appeared on the horizon of homiletical thought, challenging the Christian-supremacist positions and interpretative practices. Overcoming Christian-centrism, the article argues, can happen once the fear of the other, the fear of difference, and the fear of mixing are acknowledged in the preaching event. Interreligious reality is unfolding and inevitable as a marker of our postcolonial migration context. It potentially ushers in an exciting opportunity for the study of Christian preaching, if we are willing to embrace it.

Este artigo é reflexo do aprofundamento do estudo apresentado no VII Encontro e Diálogos com a Educação Ambiental. Neste pretendemos destrinchar as representações sociais de sujeitos surdos, presentes no filme A Gangue (2014).. A partir do projeto de extensão intitulado “Cineclube Surdo”, executado junto aos servidores e alunos do Instituto Federal de Santa Catarina, campus Palhoça Bilíngue (o qual atende surdos em sua prioridade), tínhamos como objetivo principal apresentar à comunidade produções cinematográficas realizadas por sujeitos surdos ou que representem a cultura dessa minoria linguística. No caso do filme A Gangue, este estava entre estas produções o filme escolhido para ser objeto de análise deste estudo. Assistiram este filme alunos surdos e ouvintes e servidores do campus, além de membros das associações de surdos catarinense. Após assistirem o filme, foi realizado um debate orientado por questões acerca da representação dada ao surdo, a estética dada a esta temática e a linguagem utilizada. A discussão foi estimulada, focada na representação surdo como criador no campo da arte e da importância do ensino de técnicas audiovisuais que podem dar voz a esse público na cultura popular. Neste estudo, buscamos articular as falas coletadas destas discussões com as abordagens teóricas da Educação Ambiental, evidenciando novas perspectivas de articulação e o seu caráter transcendental. This article reflects the deepening of the study presented at the VII Meeting and Dialogues with Environmental Education. In this we intend to unravel the social representations of deaf subjects, present in the film The gang. From the extension project "Cineclube Surdo", executed with the servers and students of the Federal Institute of Santa Catarina, campus Palhoça Bilingual (which attends deaf in its priority), we had as main objective to present to the community cinematographic productions made by subjects deaf or representing the culture of this linguistic minority. In the case of the film The gang, this was between these productions the film chosen to be object of analysis of this study. This film was watched by deaf students and listeners and servers of the campus, as well as members of associations of the deaf from Santa Catarina. After watching the film, a debate was conducted, guided by questions about the representation given to the deaf, the aesthetics given to this theme and the language used. The discussion was stimulated, focused on deaf representation as a creator in the field of art and the importance of teaching audiovisual techniques that can give voice to this public in popular culture. In this study, we sought to articulate the statements collected from these discussions with the theoretical approaches of Environmental Education, evidencing new perspectives of articulation and its transcendental character.
