joins host Brittany Wilmes to talk about race relations, how art can
help people connect, and where Catholics might go from here. Later,

Francis in Colombia: When
Pope Francis lands in Colombia in September, he will encounter a
population that is still torn over a peace deal ending a bloody 50-year
war between the government and rebel guerilla forces.
Experts and local Catholic leaders say the Sept. 6-11
visit will be a new test for Francis, who has stressed God's mercy
strongly in his papacy. While the pope has supported the peace deal,
half of Colombian society has not, arguing that more justice is needed
for the victims of the conflict before it can come to a merciful end.
