Lisa Asedillo is an ethicist, theologian, and ritualist whose work bridges decolonial feminist theory, transpacific/Asian American Christian ethics, and Philippine theology. She serves as an assistant professor at the Pacific School of Religion, where she also directs the Asian Pacific Islander (API) Initiative. Her current research explores imperial sacraments and ancestral memory from the Philippine theology of struggle and ecumenical women’s movement (1970s–1990s), grounding moral reflection in Global South histories of resistance to cultivate liberative pedagogies. Her ethics method centers oral histories and other nontraditional archives, connecting them to broader movements for decolonization, racial justice, and feminist and queer liberation. She lives in Oakland, California.
