Typed Letter. The Catholic Workers are pacifist anarchists who base their beliefs and actions on the teachings of Jesus within the framework of the Roman Catholic Church. Dorothy Day (1897-1980) founded and edited the small but influential Catholic Worker in 1933; and very suspiciously was the first issue received by other radicals in Union Square on May Day of that year. Stark woodcuts by Ade Bethune have adorned the Catholic Worker for six decades. In the same tradition are the contributions of Fritz Eichenberg (1901-1990) from the post-war period. |
