Even amidst unimaginable oppression\, his faith served as a wellspring of resilience and strength. \nOur distinguished speakers include Vladimir Kara-Murza\, a prominent Russian dissident and human rights advocate who himself endured imprisonment and continues to champion democracy\, and Serge Schmemann\, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and member of The New York Times editorial board. This conversation will explore faith\, resilience\, and the enduring fight for truth against authoritarianism.

DESCRIPTION:John O’Malley\, S.J. (1927–2022) was an extraordinarily talented and devoted scholar\, writer\, teacher\, and Jesuit priest. The research of his early career helped recast our understanding of the Catholic response to the Reformation and the development of the Society of Jesus. The writings of the last 20 years of his long and prolific life—books and essays on church councils and Western culture—brought him new audiences beyond the academy. \nThe golden thread running through all of his work was the centrality of cultural history. This conference will highlight that legacy while expanding on the ways that O’Malley’s style can help us understand a more global and diverse Catholicism of the future. \nAnchored by a keynote address by Carlos Eire of Yale University\, the conference will feature panels on “Catholicism as Cultural History” and “Languages of Dialogue and Inclusion\,” and will include contributions from scholars Pamela Jones\, Mary Dunn\, Thomas Worcester\, S.J.\, Mary Ann Hinsdale\, Catherine Chaput\, and James McCartin. \nFordham’s Brenna Moore will offer concluding remarks\, to be followed by a wine-and-cheese reception. \nThis event is organized by the Center on Religion and Culture and is also made possible through the support of the Spellman Jesuit Community of Fordham\, the Fordham Division on Mission and Ministry\, and the Fordham History Department.

They will help us ask how to confront and handle the history of clerical sexual abuse and its many legacies in the present. This event brings together one of the foremost researchers on clerical sexual abuse in the United States\, a Jesuit who is also a survivor of clerical sexual abuse and whose research is directed at the crisis\, two well-known writers who are survivors and who have deep ties to Jesuit educational institutions\, including Fordham\, and the director of a major Truth and Healing initiative at a Jesuit-sponsored high school for Native American students. \nFrom their own perspectives\, each member of this group will reflect on the long and recent history of the sexual abuse crisis. We are honored to host these colleagues as they address the pressing question of what it means for today’s Jesuit institutions (and their employees\, students\, and graduates) to take responsibility for addressing and redressing the bitter legacy of clerical sexual abuse.
