William Korinko, Student Dr. Melissa Stein, Major Professor Dr. Karen Tice, Director of Graduate Studies THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC CHURCH: GENDER, SEXUALITY, AND PATRIOTISM IN U.S. CATHOLIC MEDIA, 1917–1970 ________________________________________ DISSERTATION ________________________________________ A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Kentucky By William John Korinko Jr. Lexington, Kentucky Director: Dr. Melissa Stein, Professor of Gender and Women’s Studies Lexington, Kentucky 2020 Copyright © William John Korinko Jr. 2020 ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC CHURCH: GENDER, SEXUALITY, AND PATRIOTISM IN U.S. CATHOLIC MEDIA, 1917–1970 This project explores the complex relationship between religion, culture, and politics in the United States during the twentieth century by examining a largely unexplored pocket of Roman Catholic pamphlet literature, as well as other forms of Catholic media, including newspapers, magazines, radio programs, and television shows. During the twentieth century Catholic media makers spent a considerable amount of energy speaking and writing about issues related to gender and sexuality, and they often did so in racially coded terms. In addition to making prescriptions of what was appropriate and moral sexual and gendered behavior, these media makers repeatedly made the case that Catholic values on these issues were what made Catholics great Americans. Considering this, this dissertation will illustrate how Catholic media texts should be understood not only as a form of religious self-help literature, but as part of a larger political project aimed at helping Catholics assume a more central place in American social and political life. In doing so, this project will reveal how religious discourses about race, gender, and sexuality are not static, but always a product of their political, geographical, and historical context. My dissertation makes important contributions to existing scholarship on the historical production of ideas about gender, sexuality, and race, as well as the history of Catholicism in America. While many scholars interested in the history of Catholic ideas about gender, sexuality, and race tend to focus on official Vatican documents, this project focuses on the Catholic media texts that Catholics in America would have most regularly come into contact with. Vatican documents such as papal encyclicals and letters are important landmarks, but exclusively focusing on these documents risks perpetuating the notion of ideological homogeneity within the Catholic Church, which obscures the diversity of more localized experiences and manifestations of Catholicism. This project examines religion both as an institution and as a marker of identity that—like race, class, gender, and sexuality—is constructed and situated within a hierarchy of power. This project will expand on intersectional feminist scholarship and make the case for a heightened focus on religion as an axis of identity that shapes people’s experiences of the world. The United States during the twentieth century is a useful site to explore how religious identities are politically situated, as this period witnessed a significant shift in attitudes towards, and growth in confidence for, Catholics in America. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Catholics in America had been cast as a national threat and were a target of a wave of xenophobia and religious nationalism. A century later, Catholics in America are now a group whose religious identity is seen as mainstream and no longer marked as “Other.” This shift was not spontaneous, sudden, or inevitable. Instead, as this project makes clear, it was a result of a well-organized media campaign that utilized racially coded discourses about gender and sexuality to reshape the popular imagination of Catholics in America.

Research travel grants and a graduate fellowship provided the monetary support that helped make the completion of this project possible. Additionally, the Department of Gender and Women’s Studies has provided me an intellectual home where my academic work has grown and developed. I am grateful to the faculty of the department, in particular Melissa Stein and Susan Bordo, who have developed my skills as a writer and scholar and have provided me professional mentorship and insightful guidance throughout my time at the University of Kentucky. I must thank the Cushwa Center for the Study of American Catholicism at the University of Notre Dame and the American Catholic Historical Association for their monetary support of my work, which helped facilitate travel that was required for this project. I have had the great pleasure of conducting archival research in a number of excellent libraries and archives across the United States, including the Jesuit Archives and Research Center, the Archives and Special Collections at the University of Notre Dame, the Province Archives Center of the Congregation of Holy Cross, the American Catholic History Research Center and University Archives at the Catholic University of America, and the Archives and Special Collections at the University of Dayton. All of these are treasure troves of Catholic Americana, and I am grateful for all of the hospitality and assistance that I was given during my research trips. The staff at these libraries and archives have been invaluable to my research, and I deeply appreciate all of their assistance. It has become quite clear to me that no historical research project can be iii completed without the generous assistance and keen insight of librarians and archivists, and I have benefited tremendously from their work. In particular, I want to thank Jean McManus at the Hesburgh Library at the University of Notre Dame and David Miros at the Jesuit Archives. Not only did they make my multiple visits to their respective institutions enriching and productive; they provided hours of deep conversation that helped shape the direction and focus of this project. My undergraduate mentor and now friend and colleague at St. Norbert College, Karlyn Crowley, helped instill in me a love of learning and a thirst for justice that has changed my life and inspired this project. Taking her courses as an undergraduate expanded my world and changed the trajectory of my life, and she has shown me how profound the relationship between a teacher and student can be. I admire Karlyn’s wisdom, vision, integrity, love of her family and friends, and sense of humor; she represents the sort of scholarly life to which I aspire. Her mentorship, friendship, encouragement, and unwavering belief in me is one of the greatest gifts I have ever received. My dissertation committee has also been a vital source of intellectual and professional development. Karen Tice, Amy Taylor, and David Hunter have provided me with hours of incredibly helpful conversation that has deepened and focused my scholarly work.

In her final section she identifies the Black Catholic subject of Tradition.] O SPEAK ABOUT TRADITION and the traditions of African American T Catholicism is not without contention.1 Almost from the beginning, indeed, even now, the faith praxis of African American Catholics has been met with arrogance and suspicion. These reactions stem chiefly from the notion that African American Christianity is restricted to, if not identical with, a certain form of Protestantism. This misconception has been ab- sorbed not only into our religious, cultural, and social commonsense, but has been formalized in scholarship, that is, in the prevailing American religious and social historiography. On the one hand, authoritative voices among Catholic historians, sociologists, and theologians treat the notion of the immigrant church as the primary interpretative paradigm for Catholic M.

  • Chapter 18: Roosevelt and the New Deal, 1933-1939
    Roosevelt and the New Deal 1933–1939 Why It Matters Unlike Herbert Hoover, Franklin Delano Roosevelt was willing to employ deficit spending and greater federal regulation to revive the depressed economy. In response to his requests, Congress passed a host of new programs. Millions of people received relief to alleviate their suffering, but the New Deal did not really end the Depression. It did, however, permanently expand the federal government’s role in providing basic security for citizens. The Impact Today Certain New Deal legislation still carries great importance in American social policy. • The Social Security Act still provides retirement benefits, aid to needy groups, and unemployment and disability insurance. • The National Labor Relations Act still protects the right of workers to unionize. • Safeguards were instituted to help prevent another devastating stock market crash. • The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation still protects bank deposits.

  • Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right
    “Artisans … for Antichrist”: Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right Mark Weitzman* The Israeli historian, Israel J. Yuval, recently wrote: The Christian-Jewish debate that started nineteen hundred years ago, in our day came to a conciliatory close. … In one fell swoop, the anti-Jewish position of Christianity became reprehensible and illegitimate. … Ours is thus the first generation of scholars that can and may discuss the Christian-Jewish debate from a certain remove … a post- polemical age.1 This appraisal helped spur Yuval to write his recent controversial book Two Nations in Your Womb: Perceptions of Jews and Christians in late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Yuval based his optimistic assessment on the strength of the reforms in Catholicism that stemmed from the adoption by the Second Vatican Council in 1965 of the document known as Nostra Aetate. Nostra Aetate in Michael Phayer’s words, was the “revolution- ary” document that signified “the Catholic church’s reversal of its 2,000 year tradition of antisemitism.”2 Yet recent events in the relationship between Catholics and Jews could well cause one to wonder about the optimism inherent in Yuval’s pronouncement. For, while the established Catholic Church is still officially committed to the teachings of Nostra Aetate, the opponents of that document and of “modernity” in general have continued their fight and appear to have gained, if not a foothold, at least a hearing in the Vatican today. And, since in the view of these radical Catholic traditionalists “[i]nternational Judaism wants to radically defeat Christianity and to be its substitute” using tools like the Free- * Director of Government Affairs, Simon Wiesenthal Center.

Williams Department of History, University of West Georgia, 1601 Maple St., Carrollton, GA 30118, USA; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-678-839-6034 Academic Editor: Darren Dochuk Received: 25 February 2015 / Accepted: 3 April 2015 / Published: 16 April 2015 Abstract: This article employs a historical analysis of the religious composition of the pro-life movement to explain why the partisan identity of the movement shifted from the left to the right between the late 1960s and the 1980s. Many of the Catholics who formed the first anti-abortion organizations in the late 1960s were liberal Democrats who viewed their campaign to save the unborn as a rights-based movement that was fully in keeping with the principles of New Deal and Great Society liberalism, but when evangelical Protestants joined the movement in the late 1970s, they reframed the pro-life cause as a politically conservative campaign linked not to the ideology of human rights but to the politics of moral order and “family values.” This article explains why the Catholic effort to build a pro-life coalition of liberal Democrats failed after Roe v. Wade, why evangelicals became interested in the antiabortion movement, and why the evangelicals succeeded in their effort to rebrand the pro-life campaign as a conservative cause.
