Cardinal DiNardo: encounter, solidarity can help overcome racism’s effects
In a brief message for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the president of
the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops said that “while there
have been real gains in our country, we must not deny the work before us
to heal both old rifts and new wounds, including those created by the
evil of racism and related mistrust and violence.”
“Society cannot continue this work if its members are unwilling to
engage in encounters of the heart that honestly immerse them in one
another’s lives,” said Cardinal Daniel DiNardo, as he called for an
examination of “how well each of us is doing in walking together with
others in true encounter and solidarity.”
