Итог:In this interview, former Catholic Worker, writer, and Commonweal editor James O'Gara discusses The Chicago Catholic worker, and how Dorothy Day's absolute pacifist stance leading up to and during World War II threatened to divide the movement. O'Gara talks about how he and fellow Worker John Cogley both served in the war and tried and failed to keep the Chicago house and paper running after the war. He describes the creative ways they tried to obtain money for operations: such as Cogley writing a moderately successful play, Chicago Catholics and labor, and how the house was treated by Catholic leaders like Father Daniel Lord in St. Louis and Chicago Bishop Bernard Sheil. He speaks about his writing and editing career for Catholic publications such as Today, a student magazine he helped create, at U.S. Catholic, and finally at Commonweal. He also discusses life at The Chicago Catholic worker. Interruptions in audio present in original recording. Interviewed by Francis J. Sicius.
