The Religious Roots of Mass Incarceration
Presented by Andrew Krinks
Join us this Sunday as scholar and organizer Andrew Krinks leads a discussion on how religion has influenced the way people are policed and imprisoned in our country. Using research from his book White Property, Black Trespass, Krinks will explain how racial and economic injustices are deeply connected to our beliefs and systems of power. This session will help us reflect on how religious faith can inspire — or hinder! - new ways to address these ongoing challenges.—————
All parishioners are welcome to attend our thought-provoking Sunday morning adult education series as we explore the topic of mass incarceration and its impact on individuals, families, and society. Through a series of talks led by experts in the field, we will examine the criminal justice system from a Catholic perspective, focusing on justice, mercy, and human dignity. This series will offer insights into the systemic issues surrounding mass incarceration and provide a space for reflection and discussion on how we, as a faith community, can support reform and restorative justice.
