Our efforts to get the Catholic Church to use the 1.1 million it realized from selling Catholic Churches in North Central Milwaukee to hear the Cry of the Poor and our efforts to stop Marquette from Teaching War and Killing on campus are connected in the Catholic Worker tradition. Dorothy Day, co-founder of Catholic Worker movement and Catholic Workers of all types are devoted to practicing works of mercy and resisting works of war.

There is a long time Catholic Worker and former editor of Catholic Worker and Commonweal magazine, Pat Jordan, coming to Milwaukee on April 24th. According to my banning order from Marquette University I need to request permission from the Vice President of Marquette University to attend the talk at the Catholic Worker archives in the library. If I get permission from the vice president I need to have an escort while attending the talk. I do not think I need to be handcuffed and my mouth sealed.

If I seem to be making light of my ban and arrest and my ticket for my car ( From Pope Francis to Known Trespasser Car ) I am. But I am also trying to point the attention to the message that is banned at Marquette: Marquette Teaches Killing in its military programs.

We are at war, the Works of War versus the Works of Mercy. Doing works of mercy means resisting works of war.
