- Oct 59:00 AMDolan Seminar/Book Talk: Emily Conroy-Krutz’s "Missionary Diplomacy"Emily Conroy-Krutz (Michigan State University) will discuss her book Missionary Diplomacy: Religion and Nineteenth-Century American Foreign Relations (Cornell, 2024) at the Cushwa Center's fall 2024 Jay P. Dolan Seminar in American Religion. Commentators for this seminar are Heather Curtis (Tufts University) and Amy S. Greenberg (Penn State). From the publisher Missionary Diplomacy illuminates the crucial place of religion in 19th-century American diplomacy. From the 1810s through the 1920s, Protestant missionaries positioned themselves as key experts in the development of American relations in Asia, Africa, the Pacific, and the Middle East. Missionaries served as consuls, translators, and occasional trouble-makers who forced the State Department to take actions it otherwise would have avoided. Yet as decades passed, more Americans began to question the propriety of missionaries' power. Were missionaries serving the interests of American diplomacy? Or were they creating unnecessary problems? As Emily Conroy-Krutz demonstrates, they were doing both. Across the century, missionaries forced the government to articulate new conceptions of the rights of U.S. citizens abroad and of the role of the United States as an engine of humanitarianism and religious freedom. By the time the United States entered the First World War, missionary diplomacy had for nearly a century created the conditions for some Americans to embrace a vision of their country as an internationally engaged world power. Missionary Diplomacy exposes the longstanding influence of evangelical missions on the shape of American foreign relations.Inaugurated in 1980 and named in 2023 to honor the Cushwa Center’s founding director, the Jay P. Dolan Seminar in American Religion convenes each semester at the University of Notre Dame to discuss a notable book recently published in the field. Along with faculty and graduate students from Notre Dame, scholars from throughout the Midwest travel to campus to attend as invited guests of the Cushwa Center. The featured author engages with two invited commentators as well as the larger group. The Saturday morning seminar is free and open to all. Originally published at cushwa.nd.edu.

- Oct 57:00 PMFilm: "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" (2022)Each year around the Feast Day of St. Francis, the Browning Cinema programs films that look at nature, both for its beauty and the challenges presented in its preservation. This year, our film is adapted from Andreas Malm's 2021 novel of a similar title that presents questions that are central to environmentalism and sustainability but apply broadly to any form of political action: Where should guardrails be placed when one wants to eradicate a harm? To unspool that question, the film centers on a crew of young environmental activists executing a mission to sabotage an oil pipeline in this taut and timely thriller that is part high-stakes heist, part radical exploration of the climate crisis.

- Oct 87:00 PMTalk: Christine Emba and Romantic FriendshipThis week's readings invite us to examine the role of friendship in living well, with particular attention to our often self-serving inclinations or fears of exclusion. This co-curriculum event is designed to offer a nuanced and specified discussion on one form of friendship, romantic friendship. Join Christine Emba and Moreau Peer Leaders in a conversation about romantic friendship. Christine Emba is a writer, reporter, and former columnist and member of the Editorial Board for The Washington Post. In her book Rethinking Sex: A Provocation (2022), Emba argues how consent is a good ethical floor, but a terrible ceiling. She spells out the cultural, historical, and psychological forces that have warped our idea of sex. Reaching back to the wisdom of thinkers like Thomas Aquinas and Andrea Dworkin, and drawing from sociological studies, interviews with college students, and poignant examples from her own life, Emba calls for a more humane philosophy, one that starts with consent but accounts for the very real emotional, mental, social, and political implications of sex—even, she argues, if it means saying no to certain sexual practices or challenging societal expectations altogether."...if all you want is to be in the know, your pleasure will be short-lived... you were not looking for virtue or kindness or loyalty or humour or learning or wit or any of the things that can be really enjoyed. You merely wanted to be 'in.' And that is a pleasure that cannot last." - C. S. Lewis, “The Inner Ring” (1944)Guidelines This event will showcase an interview with Moreau Peer Leaders and Christine Emba as they imagine what friendship in the context of romantic relationships looks like and could look like here at Notre Dame. Register and attend the event with Moreau Peer Leaders and Christine Emba. All students, faculty, and staff are welcome, but registration is limited to 120. After attending the event, record at least five quotes or observations in your commonplace book and reflect upon them.
