Responding to the sin of racism—and building a civilization of love
Friday Dec 15, 2023
Friday Dec 15, 2023
In times of civil unrest and heightened public discourse about racial issues, it can be tempting—even for Catholics—to look only for political solutions to the divisions that plague our society. But if, as the Catholic Church teaches, racism is a sin and, as such, an obstacle to the soul’s growing in holiness, political arguments about policies and party platforms will not eradicate it. We will need to go deeper.
Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers is the author of the new book Building a Civilization of Love: A Catholic Response to Racism. He is passionate about having those deeper conversations about race and the moral and spiritual groundwork that must be laid in order to successfully combat racism in society. In this episode, he speaks with host Andrew Petiprin about how an authentically Catholic approach can help facilitate healing in our society and promote reconciliation across racial divides.
