Café Veritas: The Death of Democracy

Christianity, Politics, and the Possibility of Hospitality

It feels like America is being torn apart by deep political and cultural differences. In this public lecture, Café Veritas will offer a surprising claim: our differences are not, in fact, a threat. The true threat is our response to those differences. Christianity can help us to honor the rights, dignity, and freedom of those with whom we disagree—even those we find dangerous. Our aim for this Café Veritas is to help our city become a more hospitable space for those who deeply disagree, a place where we can talk openly and honestly about their own concerns and questions.
