Sr Thea Bowman d March 30, 1990. “What does it mean to be Black and Catholic? It means that I come to my church fully functioning, I bring myself, my Black self, all that I am, all that I have, all that I hope to become.” My reflections in @GiveUsThisDayLP #BlackCatholic

Highly recommend the documentary “The Movement and the Madman,” the story of the massive anti-war Moratorium demonstrations of Oct and Nov 1969 which—unknown to the protesters—had enormous effect in changing history, thwarting Nixon’s secret plan to launch massive escalation…

Nothing like it! Tuesday on @PBS: the premiere of "The Movement and the 'Madman,'" a film on the most effective mass protest action during the Vietnam War, perhaps any war. It stopped Nixon’s secret plan to initiate nuclear attacks on North Vietnam. A must-see.
Discover the story of the 1969 showdown between President Nixon and the antiwar movement.
“The Movement and the ‘Madman’” premieres Tue, March 28 at 9/8c on @AmExperiencePBS.
