Black Catholics (1419)

This program examines the contributions of blacks in the Catholic Church. Normally not associated with Catholicism, more and more blacks are embracing this faith and finding ways to increase awareness. Guests discuss the roots of black Catholics in the world and their struggle to establish a clergy in the United States. They also talk about the importance of key black Catholics, traditional and contemporary practices, as well as their own personal ties to the catholic faith.
