Women at the Table: Peaceworks

PeaceWorks is the inspiration and theme of the initiative that CSJPs Janet Davis Richardson and Rosalie McQuaide have undertaken. They began in the mid-1990s to publish booklets, cards, collections of Margaret Anna Cusack (MAC) quotations and the online journal STUDIES. This initiative includes the WATT archives, research, lectures, presentations at conferences, correspondence with MAC supporters in Ireland, England, and U.S., and regular meetings with consultants. PeaceWorks serves as the publishing name and trademark of these endeavors.

In addition to MAC Studies 2005 and MAC Studies 2006, PeaceWorks has assembled collections of quotations from Margaret Anna Cusack:

"What did she say about peace?" (pdf)

"What did she say about justice?" (pdf)

"Who Do You Say That I Am?" (pdf)
