DePaul University presents the fourth annual Berrigan-McAlister Award to the Los Angeles Catholic Worker (LACW). A part of the worldwide Catholic Worker movement, for more than 50 years the LACW has provided food, shelter, and support to poor and unhoused persons in Los Angeles. It also engages in nonviolent campaigns and civil disobedience focusing on issues ranging from local injustices and racism to war, militarism, climate destruction, and anti-immigrant policies. The LACW publishes The Catholic Agitator, a bimonthly newspaper in the Catholic radical tradition that provides news, commentary, reviews and updates.. . . . The award was created to honor those whose commitment to ‘gospel nonviolence’ resists injustice, transforms conflict, fosters reconciliation, and seeks justice and peace for all. It is named after Daniel Berrigan, S.J., his brother Philip, and Philip’s wife Elizabeth McAlister.
