Nobody wants to breathe polluted air. And we don’t want our homes and land contaminated. That’s the commonality we have as human beings, and that we always have to protect.” – Cheryl Johnson, daughter of Hazel Johnson, mother of the Environmental Justice Movement One of the most remarkable figures in the environmental justice movement lived in the Altgeld Apartments complex on the southeast side of Chicago, starting in 1962 and until her death in 2011. Hazel Johnson’s interest in environmental justice began with an event in her own life: the very early death of her husband at age 51 from lung cancer despite a minimal smoking history. Soon she began noticing other health issues in her friends and neighbors: breathing and skin problems, and high incidence of cancers. As she studied these issues, she learned that SE Chicago, where she lived, had the highest cancer incidence of any area in the city. In 1979, Johnson founded the non-profit People for Community Recovery to address housing and environmental issues in her community. In the early 80’s, she used a citizen science approach to gather data about health and the environment, enlisting friends in surveying their neighbors. Together they discovered that almost everyone knew someone who was the victim of cancer between the ages of 35 and 55. In the mid 80’s, she worked with a young community organizer named Barack Obama; together they revealed that her home, Altgeld Gardens, was built on a Pullman Palace Car Company dump contaminated by asbestos. She lobbied the Chicago Housing Authority tirelessly to get the site cleaned up. She began to suspect connections between the heavily industrialized areas that surrounded SE Chicago and the health problems low income and minority area residents were experiencing. She coined the phrase “the toxic doughnut” to poisonous geography that surrounded her home. In the early 90’s, she began to travel and join with other people of color across the country who were making the same connections between health problems, and abandoned/polluted industrial areas around low-income residential spaces. In the beginning, she was often the only Black person at the environmental conferences she attended; but gradually the environmental justice movement attracted more followers. She gained well deserved national recognition for her efforts, and was present in 1994 when President Clinton signed the Environmental Justice Executive Order 12898. This order directed federal agencies to identify and address the disproportionally high human health effects of environmental pollution on people of color. Johnson was also a pioneer in noting changing weather patterns that we now refer to as climate change. Throughout her life, Johnson encouraged a “culture of care” and supported the sense that we live in a common home entrusted to us by God, as Pope Francis eloquently describes in Laudato Si. The nonprofit Johnson founded, People for Community Recovery, continues her work today in SE Chicago, led by her daughter Cheryl Johnson. The solidarity that we as human beings experience with each other because we share common needs and a common home animated Hazel Johnson’s life, and continues to motivate us today.

Many of you accepted the Meatless Mondays challenge and refrained from eating meat on Monday for six weeks of the Season of Creation. As is our Catholic tradition, we abstain from meat on Friday during the Lenten season. We invite you to participate in our Lenten edition of Meatless Mondays by abstaining from meat two days per week: Mondays & Fridays. We invite you to use this sacred time to explore how your food choices can improve your health and the health of the planet.

Ein Satz, den ich sehr gut nachvollziehen kann, geht es mir doch genauso. Unzählige Male bin ich in den vergangenen Wochen und Monaten gemeinsam mit meiner Frau nach Venedig und namentlich an den Markusplatz gekommen, um in der Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana mit ihren wunderbaren Mitarbeitern, allen voran Direktor Dr. Stefano Campagnolo und dessen Stellvertreterin Dottoressa Annalisa Bruni zu konferieren, die Ausstellungen unseres PORTFOLIO-Zyklus auf- und abzubauen, den feierlichen Eröffnungen beizuwohnen oder Interessierte zu führen. Routine kam dabei keine auf. Jedesmal wieder war es ein erhebendes Gefühl, hier anzukommen, hier temporär arbeiten zu dürfen und die Begeisterung für die besondere Architektur und kunstvolle Ausstattung der Bibliothek mit Menschen, die mir wichtig sind, zu teilen. Mit der nunmehr letzten PORTFOLIO-Ausstellung geht der dreiteilige Zyklus zu Ende, dessen erklärtes Ziel es war, parallel zur 58. Kunstbiennale von Venedig eine Auswahl ganz außergewöhnlicher Künstler mit repräsentativen Werken in den prachtvollen Sälen der Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana zu präsentieren.

  • Student Life and Campus Culture at Depaul
    CHAPTER FIVE STUDENT LIFE AND CAMPUS CULTURE AT DEPAUL A Hundred Year History John 1. Rury hroughout DePaul's history, its students have contributed to the institution's distinctive character. Since 1898, as the university has changed and the campus has grown, a vibrant student culture has evolved. This was hardly unique to DePaul. In many respects, the university's students have reflected national trends in their activities and interests. But as an urban institution, DePaul's location and programs have affected the character of its students and their activities. Historically, Chicago has been a city of immigrants, and over the years DePaul has served the city's principal immigrant groups. It has ministered to Chicago's Roman Catholic popula­ tion, to be sure, but it has also provided educational opportunities for others. As constituents of an urban university, DePaul's students have reflected the diversity and vitality one would expect of a major Chicago institution of higher learning. This is an important part of the university's heritage. In coming together at DePaul, these students created a distinctive social world of their own that changed over time, often mirroring broader tendencies in student life. Still, certain features of the DePaul student experience were quite durable and helped to define an institu­ tional identity. While in many respects its students were similar to their counterparts at other institutions, there were aspects of life at DePaul that were unique. In part this was simply structural. Campus life at DePaul has long been divided between its downtown and uptown (or Lincoln Park) locations, with each site acquiring its own atmosphere.

    « Je vous dis bien simplement Grignon-Orly, le 19 août 1903 Monseigneur Je suis prêtre, j’ai 27 ans, et un peu de bonne volonté. La maison natale Pour les aptitudes, je n’ai guère brillé dans aucun genre… de Daniel Brottier( né en 1876) En entrant dans la Congrégation du Saint-Esprit, j’ai en vue les Missions et à La Ferté-Saint-Cyr (41) la vie religieuse, au même titre je dirais, ne voulant pas être missionnaire sans Elève au petit séminaire de Blois vers 1879 être religieux, avec un peu l’arrière pensée de ne pas être religieux sans être missionnaire. J‘ai étudié et je crois avoir compris l’étendue des obligations de la vie religieuse dans la Congrégation. La charité surtout, la simplicité, l’obéissance aveugle, et j’espère que, Dieu aidant, je pourrai malgré certains défauts que n’a pas complètement déracinés l’année de noviciat, n’être pas trop encombrant pour mes supérieurs et mes confrères de demain. Quant à la vie de mission, je l’ai toujours envisagée, dès l’âge de 12 ans, comme la vie d’un homme qui veut se sacrifier et s’immoler pour le salut des Daniel Brottier, 16 ans, âmes, vite ou goutte à goutte, qu’importe ! Si cependant il m’était permis avec sa famille (8 déc 1892) d’exprimer une préférence, ce serait pour la première éventualité. C’est vous dire, Monseigneur, que la tête ne me tient pas trop sur les épaules, j’ai du reste de bonnes raisons pour cela. Je ne voudrais pas être présomptueux, mais, si vous avez un poste plus périlleux, où il faille risquer quelqu’un, je vous dis bien simplement : Prêtre du diocèse de Blois, Surveillant puis professeur ME VOICI ! au collège de Pontlevoy, 1899-1902 [Lette à Mgr Leroy pour être admis dans la Congrégation Missionnaire au Sénégal, du St Esprit] 1903-1911 1903, au moment de son départ pour le Sénégal Daniel Brottier, initiateur du corps des aumôniers volontaires Depuis 1911 Lorsqu’éclate la guerre , Daniel Brottier est à Paris.
