113 West 60th Street
New York, NY 10023 United States

A talk and discussion featuring Eileen Markey (FCRH ’98), author of “A Radical Faith: The Assassination of Sister Maura” (Nation Books, 2016).

“A Radical Faith has resurrected her so that Sister Maura can, in fact, call out, continue her mission in search of justice. There is no better time to listen to this brave, compassionate woman, a committed role model for all those who, secular or religious, want to be “truly free.””
~ Ariel Dorfman, New York Times Book Review
