Deep Faith, Radical Social Analysis, Profound Personal Commitment: The Legacy of Dorothy Day

THIS EVENT IS PATH ELIGIBLE FOR ALL STUDENTS

Dorothy Day was a journalist and activist dedicated to social change, especially for workers' rights and against war, and she is now a candidate for Catholic sainthood. Her words and witness started a movement, particularly among Catholics, but in the twenty-first century, is anyone continuing her way of being both Catholic and radical? What has become of her legacy and where is it going? Dorothy Day's granddaughter, Martha Hennessy, is in the thick of that work and will speak to the directions it is taking now.
