The Civil Rights Legacy of Fr. Theodore M. Hesburgh
To inaugurate its 40th year, The Center for Civil & Human Rights was proud to host this special evening of history, narrative, and insightful research by Jennifer Mason McAward. Prof. McAward’s careful reading of the Hesburgh Papers resulted in a lively and affecting portrait of Fr. Hesburgh as a figure deeply involved in the significant civil rights issues of our times.
