RevDrMatthewFox#DorothyDay: "We are not expecting utopia here on this earth. But God meant things to be much easier than we have made them. A man has a natural right to food, clothing, & shelter. A certain amount of goods is necessary to lead a good life. A family needs work as well as bread." https://bit.ly/4b8cyyS

Also wirklich neu ist das ja nicht. Es gibt schon sehr lange linke Christ*innen in den USA - und nicht nur dort. Christlicher #anarchismus# z.B. geht in den USA wesentlich auf #dorothyday u.a. zurück. Leider sind wir in der absoluten Minderheit: gehasst von anderen Linken,weil wir religiös sind,gehasst von vielen Christ*innen, weil die eher rechts sind. #christiananarchism #christlicheranarchismus #Religion #Kirche #glaube #christentum #anarchie

Liam O'Mara IV, PhDOn #ThisDayInHistory in 1917, a group of #suffragettes called the #SilentSentinels, which included #DorothyDay, were severely beaten at #Occoquan Workhouse in VA for picketing the White House. This changed public opinion, forcing Woodrow Wilson to endorse women's #RightToVote.
MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History November 8, 1897: Dorothy Day was born. She was a Christian anarchist, journalist and activist. In 1933, she cofounded the Catholic Worker movement with Peter Maurin, combining a spiritual vision of social justice with trade unionism and other activism. They used nonviolent direct action and civil disobedience to fight for the rights of workers, the poor and homeless, and against war. Catholic Worker houses still exist throughout the country, providing hospice care, housing for activists, and support for various movements.

Angie Mangino"The Eucharist is in the poor." Martha Hennessy, granddaughter of Catholic Worker Movement co-founder Dorothy Day, continues her grandmother's mission of radical Christian discipleship. Day, a candidate for sainthood, co-founded a movement that "took the Sermon on the Mount and Catholic social teaching literally" by feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless.

My journey as a Tottenville historian began as a reporter covering Spanish Camp's demise, where I discovered Dorothy Day had stayed in a summer cottage as retreat from her Catholic Worker ministry. Learning she was baptized at my own parish, Our Lady Help of Christians, changed everything. History became personal.

Interesting analysis of Dorothy Day and G.K. Chesterton's writings on gratitude, exploring how both thinkers viewed appreciation as a starting point rather than a conclusion. The commentary examines their belief that genuine gratitude opens pathways to deeper spiritual and intellectual engagement with the world. #DorothyDay #GKChesterton #CatholicIntellectuals #Gratitude #Philosophy #SocialJustice

Russell Lawson's profile of Dorothy Day, founder of the Catholic Worker Movement traces her evolution from socialist journalist to Catholic convert, to tireless advocate for the poor. He captures Day's insistence on living out her faith through direct action: rejecting both passive spirituality and activism without spiritual foundation. #DorothyDay #CatholicSocialTeaching #SocialJustice #History

Dorothy Day, The Lay Missionary
Dorothy Day was a lay missionary.

She believed wholeheartedly in Jesus’ proclamation, according […]
