  • Massimo Faggioli, professor of theology and religious studies at Villanova University, and author of Catholicism and Citizenship: Political Cultures of the Church in the Twenty-First Century (Liturgical Press, 2017), and Natalia Imperatori-Lee, professor of Religious Studies at Manhattan College in the Bronx with a focus on feminist and Latinx theologies, discuss the steps the Catholic Church is taking to prevent sexual abuse by members of its clergy.
  • Fred Kaplan, Slate's War Stories columnist and author of Dark Territory: The Secret History of Cyber War (Simon & Schuster, 2016), discusses the upcoming North Korea summit.
