The Jesuit Relations, also known as Relations des Jésuites de la Nouvelle-France, are chronicles of the Jesuitmissions in New France. The works were written annually and printed beginning in 1632, and ending in 1673. Written as reports for their Order and for helping raise funds for the mission, the Relations were so thorough in descriptions of First Nations and their cultures that these reports are considered among the first ethnographic documents.
Originally written in French, Latin, and Italian, The Jesuit Relations were reports from Jesuit missionaries in the field to their superiors to update them as to the missionaries’ progress in the conversion of various Native American tribes. Constructed as narratives, the original reports of the Jesuit missionaries were subsequently transcribed and altered several times before their publication, first by the Jesuit overseer in New France and then by the Jesuit governing body in France. The Jesuits began to shape The Relations for the general public as their readers, in order to attract new settlers to the colony, and to raise the capital to continue the missions in New France.

New France: The Huron Confederacy and The Jesuits (1634-1650)
In the 17th Century, the mighty Huron Confederacy, or Wendat Confederacy consisted of several Iroquoian speaking nations who held a monopoly on the fur trade from all points North and West headed to New France. Both the French and the Wendat became economically dependent on one another and the acceptance of Jesuit missionaries into the lands of the Confederacy in the 1630's a French precondition to keep the Fur flowing. Despite their best intentions the Jesuits cause a rift among the Wendat and and the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois Confederacy) seeks to assimilate the Wendat, take over their territory and monopolize the trade for themselves. The ensuing war has left us with perhaps the most graphically depicted acts of torture from the Colonial Period, not for the faint of heart.

History of the Jesuits From Ignatius Loyola Through Pope Francis, the First Jesuit Pope
No religious order has spawned as much passion and controversy as the Jesuits. What is so fascinating about the Jesuits is how they responded to the modern world, and how they differed from the Dominicans and Franciscans and other medieval monastic orders. Why were they so despised? Why was the Jesuit order suppressed? Why were they persecuted? Why were they punished? Were they to blame for their troubles? We will ponder these questions using John O’Malley’s book on the Jesuits.
We will reflect on:
• The founding of the Jesuit Order by Ignatius Loyola and Francis Xavier in the 1500’s, blessed by Pope Paul III, soon after the Protestant Reformation.
• How the Jesuits advanced Catholic education and colleges after the Council of Trent, and how Jesuits became expert fund raisers so poor...

Are Critical Race Theory and Catholicism compatible? | Think Like a Jesuit, Episode 3
Critical Race Theory has been all over the news—or has it? It would be more accurate to say that many widely varying interpretations of Critical Race Theory have been a large part of the public debate about racism in the United States today. Whether or not those interpretations actually grasp C.R.T. is another matter.
In this episode of "Think Like a Jesuit," Paddy and Eric first define C.R.T. and then discuss what it has to offer Catholics who are seeking to address the problem of racism, both in the church and in the U.S. at large.
