Clifford, S.J.&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;Thomas Massaro, S.J. In the wake of the 2016 campaign season and election, a number of concerns have surfaced regarding the dual identify of Catholics as committed believers and citizens.&amp;nbsp; This presentation addresses how Catholics today may draw from the Church\u2019s tradition of reflection on public affairs in ways that honor Catholic moral teachings and foster agency.&amp;nbsp; To help articulate the Catholic voice, Fr. Clifford will speak on the biblical tradition of the Old Testament prophets, and Fr. Massaro will present elements of Catholic Social Teaching that provide a framework for critically engaging key issues through our unique perspective as citizens.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Sponsored by the School of Theology and Ministry Richard J. Clifford, S.J., is STM Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, and&amp;nbsp;Thomas Massaro, S.J., is professor of moral theology at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University.
