July Virtual Meeting with Speaker

Paige Courtney Barnes is an educator, writer and public speaker in Nashville, TN. She seeks to share her unique perspective, as a black Catholic in the south, to foster dialogue, education and fellowship. She earned a B.A. in philosophy from the University of Notre Dame and a M.A. in secondary teaching from Aquinas College. Her work may be found at www.blackcatholicprose.com.

She will speak to NCBWL about racial justice in light of our church’s social justice doctrine. Her talk is entitled “Race, Religion and Reconciliation in America.” She will cover a few of the basics of Civil Rights history in America, what our bishops have written in regard to racial justice, and how reconciliation is the goal. She places an emphasis on how reconciliation comes from God, and thus prayer and the sacraments provide the foundation for healing. She will leave us with action steps for enacting changes in our spheres of influence- i.e family, friends and businesses..
