Joe Biden and Catholicism in the United States

Wednesday, April 14, 2021, 121 p.m.

Zoom

After a dramatic election amid a raging pandemic, racial violence, economic collapse, and historic national divisions that have threatened the U.S. democracy, Joe Biden was elected the 46th president of the United States. For Catholics, this is a momentous occasion in U.S. public life, as he is the second Catholic to be elected to the nation’s highest office. Understanding the triangle of relations between the White House, the Vatican, and the U.S. Catholic Church is essential for understanding the political and religious urgency of this moment.

We invite you for a conversation with Villanova University Professor Massimo Faggioli, an author, historian, and theologian; John O. Brennan, a distinguished fellow at Fordham’s Center on National Security and a former CIA director; and Fordham Professor Thomas Massaro, S.J.
