The 19th Annual Rita Cassella Jones Lecture on Women and U S Catholicism

The Evil of Violence Against Women, and The Hope Manifest in Pope Francis’ Enduring Legacy
Presented by: Nancy Pineda-Madrid, Ph.D. | Loyola Marymount University
Where within the Catholic tradition is hope to be found for those victimized by feminicide, the most severe form of violence against women? Feminicide, the growing eruption of the systematic killing of women because they are women is an extreme form of violence breaking out in several countries across America including in the United States. Dr. Pineda-
Madrid’s lecture will explore this issue in terms of salvation, encouraging Christian hope through the subversion of evil.
