On Monday, Nov. 22 at 2pm ET, Pax Christi USA Program Director Roxana Bendezú will participate as a panelist for “Economic Justice for All at 35“, a webinar sponsored by the Catholic Labor Network and others.
In November 1986 the National Conference of Catholic Bishops (NCCB, predecessor of the USCCB) issued a critical pastoral letter on the U.S. economy, Economic Justice for All. What can Economic Justice for All teach us today? Panelists will reflect on the document in light of 35 years of economic development and Catholic Social Teaching.
Panelists include:
- Fr. David Hollenbach, SJ, Georgetown University
- Meghan Clark, St. John’s University
- Roxana Bendezú, Pax Christi USA
Great to see this. I remember going to a USCCB national conference in Washington D.C. on the Pastoral Letter Economic Justice for All shortly after its release and meeting Archbishop Dom Helder Camera of Recife Brasil. A Saint!
