Lantigua in the News

By David M. Lantigua, an associate professor of theology and co-director of the Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism, University of Notre Dame.

In an interview, David Lantigua, an associate professor of theology at Notre Dame and the co-director of Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism, said that one of the "real and lasting contributions of Gutiérrez's work is to really think about that the option for the poor and the perspective of the poor in history. It has universal, global implications."

“The appeal of religious tradition, whether through the [Latin Mass] or popular piety and devotions, is becoming more attractive in a society that appears to be losing a sense of deeper cultural roots in the face of identity politics, overconsumption and the individualistic pursuit of material success,” David M. Lantigua, co-director of the Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism at Notre Dame, wrote.
