Proudest Moment: It took me by great surprise when Dr. Boers of UW Chamber Singers shared with me that he wanted to use my first choral composition for our 2018 Spring concert. Just weeks before graduation, the concert was the culmination of much of what I have worked on at UW, and I was able to celebrate with family and friends.
Thesis: Beyond Prayer: Liberationist Christian Praxis in the Contemporary U.S.
fredrik.mansfield@gmail.comI am a soon-graduate of the University of Washington with a Bachelor of Arts in Comparative History of Ideas (CHID). Deeply passionate about life, social justice, and unconditional global love, I find himself devoting all my free time to community groups all across the spectrum, often involved in some form of outreach. Personal pastimes include running, delving into the great outdoors, singing, and spending time with loved ones. My plan is eventually to pursue some form of radical living project (Christian commune). Thereafter, I hope to be inspiring and challenging people of all walks of life to practice bold and sacrificial love to all peoples, especially those most marginalized by the structures in our society. Fun fact: I walk everywhere barefoot and get the most surprising reactions for it. Some people think I'm disgusting, others praise my initiative and ask for my social media (which is pretty much nonexistent).
