What it means to be a “good” or “bad” Catholic in the fight against racism

This week on “Jesuitical,” Zac and Ashley are joined by Matthew
Cressler, a scholar of Catholicism and race. Matthew created “Bad
Catholics, Good Trouble,” a webcomic series about anti-racism and
struggles for justice across American Catholic history, which
frames an enlightening discussion about racial justice in the
Catholic Church. They discuss: - Institutional and individual
Catholic responses to the civil rights movement - The history of
white supremacy in American Catholicism - What it means to be a
“good” or “bad” Catholic in the face of injustice In Signs of the
Times, Zac and Ashley discuss allegations of sexual misconduct
against Quebec’s Cardinal Archbishop Gérald Lacroix; a summit in
Rome that brought together pairs of Catholic and Anglican bishops
from 27 countries; and Martin Scorsese’s latest meeting with Pope
Francis. Jesuitical is going on the road in 2024! We hope you’ll
join us. And if you’d like Zac and Ashley to come to your parish,
