Very nice piece by my dad's old friend Sy Hersch. Yet if he has ever played the Beatles or Billy Joel on the piano that is news to me. MY FIFTY YEARS WITH DAN ELLSBERG open.substack.com/pub/seymou…

Happy to hear this. A sample of the audio text provided.
New #audiobook alert: "A Living Gospel: Reading God's Story in Holy Lives" by @RobertEllsberg. This book shares the gift of the saints—not perfect people, floating in prayer, but human beings who sought to follow Jesus despite their flaws; people like us. piped.video/27_wMlbHqYo

In case you missed the amazing and historic discussion by @DanielEllsberg, Noam Chomsky, @rfalk13, moderated by @CynthiaLazaroff. We couldn’t be more grateful for their wisdom, insight, + bravery, over the decades and in these difficult times. Watch here: wagingpeace.org/nuclear-dang…

Jean-Pierre de Caussade, Jesuit, who wrote of “the sacrament of the present moment,” died March 6 1751. My reflection today in @GiveUsThisDayLP He inspired the title of my book “A Living Gospel” @OrbisBooks

A couple years ago I spoke with @RobertEllsberg about his dad and about his own role in releasing the Pentagon Papers.

As he notes, he is in high spirits, grateful for the life he has lived, eager to use his remaining time to continue his work for peace and the survival of our planet. May his example inspire us all to live more courageously, generously, and hopefully.
