SUMMARY:A Catholic Reckoning on Slavery: Rachel Swarns on The 272: The Families Who Were Enslaved and Sold to Build the American Catholic Church
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Swarns is a journalist\, scholar\, and Black Catholic from Staten Island whose groundbreaking reporting and research illuminates the harrowing origin story of the Catholic Church in America\, which relied on slave labor and slave sales to sustain its operations and help fuel its expansion. \nThe article she first wrote for The New York Times in 2016—about the prominent Jesuit priests who sold 272 people to save Georgetown University from bankruptcy—would become the seed of her new book\, The 272: The Families Who Were Enslaved and Sold to Build the American Catholic Church. Her work has helped spark the movement for reparations and reconciliation in America—and in the Catholic Church. \nProfessor Swarns will talk about her book\, about what the Church—and the United States—must do to help heal our racial divides\, and about what this project has meant for her own faith. \nDavid Gibson\, director of Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture\, will moderate a discussion after the talk\, including questions from the audience. \nSwarns will be available to sign a limited number of books following the program. \nThis lecture is made possible by the Russo Family Foundation in memory of Wanda and Robert Russo Sr.\, M.D.\, FCRH ‘39.

SUMMARY:Sister Helen Prejean on Dead Man Walking: Opera\, Activism\, and Faith
DESCRIPTION:Catholic nun and death penalty opponent Helen Prejean will join both the composer and lead singer of the Metropolitan Opera’s new production for an evening of conversation. \nDead Man Walking is Sister Prejean’s bestselling 1993 memoir chronicling her ministry to death row inmates and the families of their victims. In 1995\, her book was adapted for the screen and became an Academy Award-winning film. And in 2000\, Dead Man Walking premiered as an opera—the most widely performed new opera of the last 20 years. \nThis fall\, the opera makes its premiere at the Metropolitan Opera. In anticipation of that opening\, Sister Prejean will join composer Jake Heggie and mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato—who portrays Sister Prejean—at the Church of St. Paul the Apostle for a conversation about the opera and the roles art and faith play in galvanizing social action. \nThe occasion of this production is especially propitious as Pope Francis has declared the death penalty “inadmissible” under Catholic teaching. At the same time\, some states are ramping up efforts to schedule executions even as more death row inmates are exonerated or questions are raised about their convictions. This gives the campaign against capital punishment even greater urgency. \nFordham University president Tania Tetlow will introduce the evening’s guests\, and the Center on Religion and Culture’s director\, David Gibson\, will moderate the discussion. \nThis event is a partnership with the Church of St. Paul the Apostle and the Metropolitan Opera.

SUMMARY:Civil Religion: Road to Redemption or American Heresy?
DESCRIPTION:Civil religion has been described as a powerful\, shared\, but nondenominational belief in the United States as an exceptional nation\, a city upon a hill that was great because it was good. But today civil religion is coming under scrutiny as some see the angry populism of the Trump era turning the cohesive force of patriotism into blood-and-soil nationalism. \nCan a country in which the national anthem has become a dividing line still rally around civic sacraments and symbols? \nSpeakers\n\nKathleen Flake\, Richard Lyman Bushman Professor of Mormon Studies at University of Virginia\nJohn Carlson\, Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Arizona State University and Interim Director of the Center for the Study of Religion and Conflict\nSusan Wise Bauer\, Essayist and Author of the History of the World Series for W. W. Norton\nMark Silk\, Director of the Leonard Greenberg Center for the Study of Religion in Public Life at Trinity College\n\nModerated by David Gibson\, Director of the Fordham Center on Religion and Culture \n\nSponsored by the Fordham Center on Religion and Culture\n\n\nFREE ADMISSION\nRSVP: crcevent@fordham.edu\nMore information at: fordham.edu/CRC
