SUMMARY:Daniel Rudd: Calling a Church to Justice
DESCRIPTION:In May of 1890\, The Christian Solider\, an African American newspaper\, identified the Catholic journalist and activist Daniel Arthur Rudd as the “greatest negro Catholic in America.” Yet many Catholics today are unaware of Rudd’s efforts to bring about positive social change during the early decades of the Jim Crow era. \nDr. Gary Agee\, Associate Professor of Church History at Anderson University will present a compelling look at the life and work of this visionary who found inspiration in his Catholic faith to fight for the principles of liberty and justice.

SUMMARY:Israelity: The Jewish Peoplehood Puzzle
DESCRIPTION:The Jewish Federation of Cincinnati will be hosting this event through their series “Israelity.” What does a shared Jewish society look like? Jews come from all parts of the world and speak with many voices\, yet they remain bound to one another through shared identity\, heritage\, and values. As the spectrum of Jewish identity expands across continents and through cultures\, the notion of peoplehood grows simultaneously more challenging and essential.

SUMMARY:Bridges Not Walls
DESCRIPTION:IJPC will be participating in the Cincinnati location of Faith and Public Life’s campaign of “Bridges Not Walls”. February 17th marks the one year anniversary of Pope Francis’ visit to the US/Mexico border. When Pope Francis prayed for migrants and refugees at the border he transformed a dusty fence into an oasis of hope. Now just days into the new administration\, immigrant and refugee families are now at greater risk than ever.  As people of faith\, we must respond with one voice: “Build bridges\, not walls.” Together our voices can echo through the halls of Congress. Join us on the 17th OUTSIDE of Senator Portman’s office for a peaceful demonstration.

There\, Mari learned the importance of organizing and standing up to what is justice for everyone\, not a few. \n  \nAlex Nizigiyimana:\nAlex Nizigiyimana was born in Tanzania but is from Burundi. Born in a refugee camp\, Alex came to the U.S. at a young age. Today he attends the University of Cincinnati studying IT.

Alex is a proud recent member of YES. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Peace Committee Meeting: Staff reflection from time in Israel & Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Andrea Koverman\, SC\, will share a reflection of her time in Israel and Palestine.  Andrea and two other colleagues visited Israel and Palestine through HOPE (Holy Land Outreach Promoting Education). Their mission included visiting Jordan where they met Fr. Khalil Ja’ar\, Iraqi refugee families including some of the children\, who are enrolled in the refugee camp in Marka. In Bethlehem\, they visited Hogar Nino Dios\, a home for abandoned and disabled children and  the Aida Refugee camp. They shared information about a program called TLC (Trauma Loss in Children) and offered suggestions for emotional behavioral accommodations and modifications. Also water filters\, donated by the Sisters of Charity\, were brought to the refugee camps. One filter provides clean water for 5 families for 10 years and all that is needed is a bucket. \nThis is instead of the normal monthly Peace Committee meeting.

SUMMARY:Racism and our Catholic Response
DESCRIPTION:In the US Catholic Bishops document “Brothers and Sisters to Us\,” they tell us that “Racism is a sin: a sin that divides the human family\, blots out the image of God among specific members of that family\, and violates the fundamental human dignity of those called to be children of the same Father.” \nIn the American context\, racism has often been called “America’s Original Sin.” \nFor many white Americans\, it is difficult to understand the impact that racism has on our brothers and sisters of color. Like all sin\, racism has both an individual and a structural component. \nJoin the UC Catholic Newman Club as Brice Mickey\, director of RAPP at the University of Cincinnati\, and Deacon Royce Winters\, Director of African American Catholic Ministries for the Archdiocese\, lead us through an examination of race and what our Catholic response should be\, if we are to be a church of the Gospel. \nMr. Mickey’s presentation is called “Diversity and Inclusion.”\nDeacon Winters’ presentation is called “Racism & Justice: Promoting Peace In Our Communities.” \nThe Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center will provide trained facilitators for small group discussion. \nThis evening will offer an opportunity for hard questions and frank discussion. \nWe hope that you will be stretched.\nWe hope that you will feel uncomfortable and challenged.\nWe hope that you come away with the recognition that we are called as Catholics to dismantle racism wherever we find it: in ourselves\, our Church\, our University Campus and the world.
