How can a feminist, socialist, and pacifist who once had an abortion be on the path to becoming a saint of the Catholic Church? This is a true story that shocks even historians and priests.
Meet Dorothy Day, the journalist and activist who founded The Catholic Worker - a groundbreaking movement that changed American Catholicism forever. In this episode, we follow her extraordinary journey: from New York’s leftist bohemia and an interview with Leon Trotsky, through the trauma of abortion and struggles with her atheist partner, to a powerful conversion to faith.
Discover how, in the middle of the Great Depression, she created a program that blended radical pacifism and social justice, offering a moral alternative to both communism and capitalism. She challenged her own beliefs - and the world around her. Dorothy Day remained fearlessly uncompromising until the end. Find out why her life still inspires activists, believers, and even Popes John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Francis.
