Thursday, May 21th, 7PM: Putting Her Life On the Line to Change the World: Martha Hennessy: On her Civil Disobedience, Why She Did It, and What Must Change
On April 4th, 2018, Martha Hennessy and 6 other Catholic activists, calling themselves the Kings Bay Plowshares, met on Kings Bay Naval Base in Georgia where they broke in and performed a non-violent protest of symbolically hammering on statues of nuclear missiles, pouring blood, and hanging banners with messages against these weapons. The book they intentionally left behind was Daniel Ellsberg's The Doomsday Machine. Martha Hennessy is also the granddaughter of Dorothy Day, famous for starting the Catholic Worker Movement.
Please join us for a ZOOM discussion with Ms. Hennessy and learn more about her actions, her impetus, and her work to change the world.
