“A Moral Giant”: A Democracy Now! Special on the Life & Legacy of Father Daniel Berrigan
Watch our full interview with close friends and the niece of the legendary antiwar priest, Father Daniel Berrigan,
as we remember his life and legacy. He died on April 30, just short of
his 95th birthday. Berrigan was a poet, pacifist, educator, social
activist, playwright and lifelong resister to what he called “American
military imperialism.”
We speak with Frida Berrigan, a longtime peace
activist who writes a regular column for Waging Nonviolence. We are also
joined by John Dear, a Catholic priest and longtime peace activist who
is Berrigan’s literary executor and the editor of five books of his
writings; and Bill Quigley, one of Daniel Berrigan’s attorneys, who is a
professor and director of the Stuart H. Smith Law Clinic and Center for
Social Justice, and the Gillis Long Poverty Law Center at Loyola
University.
