Fratelli Tutti: Engaging Pope Francis's New Encyclical on Social Friendship

The Lumen Christi Institute

An online panel discussion with Russell Hittinger (Lumen Christi Institute) and Joseph Capizzi (Catholic University of America), moderated by Jennifer Frey (University of South Carolina). Originally broadcast October 27, 2020. Who is my neighbor? Who is my brother and sister? Drawing on central gospel themes found in the Good Samaritan narrative, Pope Francis applies them to the whole “human family,” proposing that the logic of social friendship and neighborly love move beyond the personal to touch on every major social sphere. Join as this panel of experts in Catholic Social Thought discuss Pope Francis’s latest social encyclical, Fratelli Tutti. Cosponsored by the Institute for Human Ecology at Catholic University of America and America Media.
