Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Cardinal Theodore McCarrick during the session "Faith and Modernization" at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland in 2008.
The sex abuse saga in the Roman Catholic Church took a shocking new turn recently when the Vatican suspended Washington Cardinal Theodore McCarrick from public ministry after allegations surfaced that he had abused several young men. Then just last week a Virginia man filed a police report with the Loudoun County sheriff that alleged McCarrick had abused him when he was a child. The rumors had swirled around McCarrick for years in Catholic circles. Why was nothing done about him sooner and how are Catholics in the archdiocese coping?
