520    Uncover the truth about the scandal that shook the Texas 
       Baptist community, buried for over a century.   In 1894 
       Steen Morris raped Antônia Teixeira. Both had been guests 
       in the house of Baylor University president Rufus 
       Burleson. The assault took place in Burleson’s backyard 
       and was the first of a series of assaults that eventually 
       left the young Baylor student pregnant. Rather than hold 
       the guilty party accountable, Rufus Burleson and other 
       prominent members of the Baptist community in Waco 
       launched a campaign of intimidation, victim-blaming, and 
       cover-up to preserve the virtuous image of their 
       institution.    In Remembering Antônia Teixeira, Mikeal C.
       Parsons and João B. Chaves painstakingly peel back the 
       layers of concealment that have accumulated over a century
       of enforced silence about the case. Beginning with 
       Antonia’s father Antônio Teixeira, a priest who had 
       renounced Catholicism and become a pillar of the Baptist 
       community in Brazil, Parsons and Chaves uproot 
       romanticized and hagiographical accounts of the Southern 
       Baptist Convention’s foreign missions. They then follow 
       Antônia’s journey north, her assault, and the subsequent 
       scandal that shook Texas—until it was intentionally 
       erased.    Iconoclastic and meticulous, Remembering 
       Antônia Teixeira calls attention to how religious 
       institutions have used selective memory to maintain power.
       In doing so, this book takes a first step toward 
       dismantling those structures of oppression.
