May 1, 1933 rally in
Union Square, NYC
I love moments of life where various aspect of my life seems to intersect. Today a friend in Holland send me an article in the New York Times called A Different Intersection of Church and Politics were many parts of my life came together. First the person who sent me the article was Jim Forest a writer who had been a member of the Catholic Worker New Your city and has written books about Dorothy Day, the co-founder of the Catholic Worker Movement. Also, like me he was a member of the Milwaukee 14 nonviolent action in 1968. The article itself is about the intersection of the Catholic Worker in NYC and the Occupy Wall Street movement, both of great interest to me.
Also tomorrow is the big May Day march in Milwaukee for Immigration Rights, something close to the hearts and minds of Catholic Workers. In fact the first issue of the Catholic Worker was distributed, for a penny a copy, at the May 1, 1933 rally in Union Square in New Your City.
Thinking about this intersection of life I saw how other parts of my life have intersected today and every day. But this is enough for now. Read the article, A Different Intersection of Church and Politics and enjoy this intercession of life
