Dear Editor: One article in The Tablet (Nov. 19) mentions that “many in the African-American community fear a rollback of the many advances made in recent years.”

Is It Politics as Usual?
Dear Editor: I’m writing in response to some of the letters that have appeared in The Tablet advocating that we support President-elect Trump. I understand that when an individual is elected and may not be the person of our choice we need to come together as much as possible to support that person as the duly elected president. In most elections we need to rely on our representatives to communicate, compromise, and negotiate on behalf of the citizens who have elected him.
The Order of the Mass
Dear Editor: It is time to set the record straight. I must respond to Mr. Gange’s comments (Readers’ Forum, Nov. 12).
Continue to Speak for Justice
Dear Editor: After enduring the most exhausting and turbulent presidential campaign in modern history, now is the time to reflect on our role as Catholic Christians. Donald Trump conducted a campaign fueled by hatred, fear, racism, xenophobia and misogyny.
History Neglected
Dear Editor: That three million Polish Catholics were slain together with three million Polish Jews is a neglected fact of history, as noted in your Readers’ Forum (Sept. 3).
Farewell to Nursing School
Dear Editor: Thank you for Michael Rizzo’s wonderful article on St. Catherine’s Hospital School of Nursing final breakfast! It was with great joy that I read this.
Congratulations to Bishop
Dear Editor: First of all, my congratulations to Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio on his 20 years of episcopal service.
Reactions to Elections
Dear Editor: In regards to Patricia Kenney’s letter (Nov. 5), I beg to differ in all aspects.
Conscientious Distinctions
Dear Editor: While columnist George Weigel makes some legitimate criticisms of the culture and the flaws of the presidential candidates (Oct. 29), he fails to distinguish between the pro-life, pro-marriage, religious freedom positions of the Republican Party and the pro-abortion, pro-homosexual “marriage,” anti-religious freedom positions of the Democratic Party.
Celebrating Mary’s Month
Dear Editor: During the month of October, we honored Our Lady, especially under the title of Our Lady of the Rosary. One Saturday, throughout our country, we were asked to publically show our devotion to Mary by reciting her Rosary.
