Dorothy Day brooks no misunderstanding. She is out to change the world. She is also out to feed and clothe and shelter people—“the worthy and the unworthy poor.” And she will fight to get it done while she creates little oases of peace everywhere. Then, she says, one little space at a time, she will encircle the globe with this new way of being alive. That’s charity to the ultimate. It is also a world-changing prophetic statement about the Christian lifestyle.
