Georgetown University Time 12:30pm - 1:30pm Audience Students, Faculty, Staff, Alumni, Public Catholicism, Joe Biden, and U.S. Politics: A Conversation with Massimo Faggioli Massimo Faggioli’s forthcoming book, Joe Biden and Catholicism in the United States (2021), is an assessment of the state of American Catholicism and how President Joe Biden’s faith and practice fits into that framework. The book also examines Biden’s faith in the historical context of other Catholics who have run for the American presidency and identifies how his Catholicism might guide his policies. Faggioli argues that the triangle of relations between the White House, the Vatican, and the U.S. Catholic Church is an essential dimension for understanding the political and religious urgency of this moment in history.
