- 12:30 PM1h 15m(Death Penalty Abolition Week): A Talk with Sr. Helen Prejean: "The Sanctity of Human Life"Sister Helen Prejean, a leading voice for the abolition of the death penalty, has dedicated her life to advocating for human dignity. After witnessing multiple executions, she became a fierce critic of capital punishment.

Following their meeting in August 2018, Pope Francis announced new language in the Catholic Catechism declaring the death penalty inadmissible as an attack on human dignity. Sister Helen will share her journey of faith and activism, discussing the impact of her work in the fight to end the death penalty.
