Dorothy Day

    Dorothy Day byla americká novinářka a sociální aktivistka, která se stala hluboce oddanou katoličkou. Ve 30. letech 20. století spoluzaložila s Peterem Maurinem Hnutí katolického dělníka, které dodnes spojuje přímou pomoc chudým a bezdomovcům s nenásilným aktivismem v jejich zájmu. Její život a dílo inspirovaly mnohé v katolické komunitě i mimo ni.
