Catholic Workers on the Ground in Haiti.....

category international | miscellaneous | other press author Saturday January 30, 2010 15:09author by Catholic Worker Report this post to the editors

The Catholic Worker is 70+ year old radical anarcho-pacifist movement of some 180 autonomous communities (mostly in North America) combining the practise of the acts of mercy and nonviolent resistance. The CW houses and projects refuse all state funding. The Philadelphia Catholic Worker operates a free clinic and has a longstanding relationship with the "Mathew 25 -House of Hospitality" free clinic in Haiti.

The Catholic Worker delegation presently in Haiti includes CW nurse Joanna Berrigan, radical Detroit Bishop Thomas Gumbleton who has a long anti-war history and sanctios breaking in Iraq in the '90's and radical lawyer Bill Quigley who has longstanding involvement in Haitian human rights cases.

Background on the CW dlegation and Mathew 25 project (including a television news report) can be found on this link.....

Most recent update from Bill Quigley

Haiti: hell and hope

by Bill Quigley http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-quigley

Smoke and flames rose from the sidewalk. A white man took pictures.
Slowing down, my breath left me.

The fire was a corpse. Leg bones sticking out of the flames.

Port Au prince police headquarters is gone, already bulldozed. A
nearby college is pancaked. Government buildings are destroyed. Stores
fallen down. Tens of thousands of buildings destroyed. Hundreds of
thousands homeless.
