Terrific summary of Christopher Kellerman’s history of slavery and Catholic Church @OrbisBooks . My interview with him here: piped.video/NTPHn226BuM
1/11 This @CJKellermanSJ book is, hands down, one of the best theological works I have read. This isn’t another text vainly cheerleading for a cause- it’s a deep examination of painful truths worthy of the @JesuitsGlobal’s reputation for scholarship.

I really enjoyed doing this podcast with @juliafspa. We talked about my work on saints, the meaning of vocation and a "journey faith," what I learned from Dorothy Day and Sister Wendy, and just about everything. Apologies for starting slow, but it heats up fast!

Eighty years ago today, Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans were beheaded for their part in resisting Nazi crimes.
On Feb 22 1943 Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans, 21 and 22, were beheaded by the Nazis for their part in the White Rose, a small circle of young people in Munich who tried to provoke a moral awakening by distributing leaflets denouncing the evils of the Nazi regime.
