Gavin Newsome, On His Jesuit Upbringing

Progressive Values Stories: Gavin Newsom on Inclusivity and Noah’s Ark
An interview by Edwin Rutsch

an excerpt.

Edwin Rutsch's question: What progressive values are personally most important to you?

Gavin Newsome's response:
........."That interesting, you know, I guess this is my Jesuit upbringing. It comes from the Bible where there are many parts, but one body, where when one suffers, we all suffer. I mean it's a fundamental, a very human value. It's a spiritual one, it's also a secular one and I think a progressive one nonetheless."
