    Whew! Made a debt in cleaning up basement storage while listening to the last hour or so! Excellent discussion to listen to while clearing out stuff. I should go back and replay the whole thing and get back downstairs.

    Yes, St Augustine and Simon of Cyrene were from the continent of Africa, but they were ethnically closer to Mediterranean people than people that we think of as quintessential Africans today.
    Africa is a huge continent! Home to many ethnicities. It got it's name from the Roman province of Africa, which was made up of only the northern coast of the continent. Sadly the Arab invasion displaced most of the Greek/Semite/Roman ethnic population of North Africa. Although the pre-Arab Copts and Berbers are still there in some places. Only the Copts held on to Christianity in large numbers and Berbers are mostly Muslims today.
    The Berbers have a very striking look, similar to Persians. Scholars tend to think St Monica was Berber and I bet she was very beautiful. ❤

    About European catholicism compared to American catholicism: as a European I know that there are a lot of movements where people find home and guidance. But the strength of Americans or just English speaking cultures is somehow the story telling, and wording. At least in my observation. I not only like to listen to English catholic content but I also prefer to read English literature and watch English movies. So I gues it has something to do with language, culture and heritage. and the Internet and tech serve to propel these contents to a worldwide level

    Very good interview Fr. Louis is awesome! I would like to offer a bit of historical context for the Pope Nicholas part to hopefully help with the confusion. In the period of Christendom subjugation had a different connotation than it had now. Since the concept of nationalism didn't come about until the 19th century there was no concept of citizenship. So for example you wouldn't consider yourself a citizen of Spain you would instead be a subject of His Majesty King Ferdinand III. If you were a subject of a king it just meant that you were under his protection and in return you would serve your king. So when people like Pope Nicholas or Christopher Columbus refer to subjugation they are wanting to bring them into a Christian "nation". They saw these Africans, Saracens, Native Americans, etc. as equals to the people in Europe. They saw them as a people created in God's own image that were worthy of being subjects (or citizens to use a modern comparison) of a Christian king.

      That sounds very good. Thank you. Do you have any resources you’d recommend concerning that issue, especially dealing with the relationship between Nicholas’s decree and the slave trade that ensued?

    Everyone dreams of having a priest like Father Louis to lead them. He seems really approachable like you might expect a good father to be, instead detached and judgmental which often creates a troubled kid.

    I remember reading a book about voodoo when I was a kid ( I wasn’t even aware of what I was reading until later) a kid won a potato chip contest and used the money to buy voodoo things to make a doll to beat up his school bully. Looks back I’m shocked my mom didn’t screen that at the library she was all on top of that no Harry Potter even. I hope we get more books like Narnia soon
