Arm in Arm: Natural Law and Civil Rights in the Era of Martin Luther King

Dr. Susan Hanssen, history professor at the University of Dallas, will speak on the Catholic Church and civil rights. The 1930s, '40s, and '50s saw a revival of Catholic natural law thinking due to an influx of emigres fleeing Nazi and Soviet totalitarianism. They brought to American higher education a renewed appreciation for natural law thinking, which contributed in a fundamental way to the civil rights arguments of Martin Luther King.

There will not be CLE credit offered for this talk.
