This is our final episode of this series on Catholic Social Justice Teaching.
In this episode Alisha, Annie, Lauren, and Stacy discuss Feminism through the lens of Rights and Responsibilities and Solidarity, both being themes of Catholic Social Justice Teaching. We discuss the roots of feminism and how the rhetoric has shifted since the 60s and 70s. We propose that we as Catholics should be working together to refocus the feminist conversation back from narrowed personal gains to that of a wider global sustainability. Helping other women be successful and setting the world ablaze with what women are.
"The world doesn't need what women have. The world needs what women are." - St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (St. Edith Stein)
**** Possible trigger topics that are discussed- abuse, briefly pornography and sex trafficking, abortion

In this episode Alisha, Lauren, and Stacy discuss what to do when we feel like there is a conflict with a family member or friend and we have exhausted all of our olive branches and still feel rejected. We thought this episode would compliment our episodes on Social Justice Teaching (we do have one more coming) and the beginning of the holiday season.
During the episode Stacy quotes numerous times from the book If You Knew My Family, You'd Understand : A Family Systems Primer by Jack Shitama.

We continue our discussion of Catholic Social Justice Teaching this week while discussing homosexuality.
How do we as Catholics uphold church teachings on marriage and family and create a welcoming space for our family, friends, and community members who experience same-sex attraction?
In this episode, we examine this question through the lenses of two Catholic Social Justice Teaching Themes; The Life and Dignity of the Human Person and The Call to Family, Community, and Participation.

We apologize for some distortion in the middle of the episode. Somehow the speed was changed during recording. I was able to slow it enough to hear us but it is still distorted.
