Georgetown University’s Post-Election Dialogue on Religious Values

Georgetown University’s Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life will present an online dialogue, titled “Faith and the Faithful in the 2020 Election: What Happened? Why? What Now?” on Tuesday, November 10, 2020 at 1:00 p.m.

Register here for the livestreamed discussion.

This dialogue will have live closed captioning. For all other accommodation requests, please Email cathsocialthought@georgetown.edu by November 9, 2020. A good-faith effort will be made to fulfill requests.

A week after the United States’ election day, this online Georgetown dialogue will bring together respected reporters and experts on faith and politics to examine how religious values, voters and communities shaped the debate and affected the outcome of the presidential election. This conversation will also look ahead to whether and how the nation can come together after the election.
