Visionaries:
During the infamous "non-history" conference hosted by a local sect this past
winter I met a remarkable young man. He was a first generation college
student - his parents were (and continue to be employed as migrant workers in
Southern Idaho. Through very hard work and extraordinary sacrifice they have been
able to stay in one location long enough for him to attend primary and
secondary school. Consequently, he acquired the education that prepared him to
attend the University of Idaho on scholarship. He feels that he is attending
school on behalf of and in the place of many members of his family. Ingrate?
Hardly. He felt honored - get that, Pat, honored, to have the chance to go to
college. Needless to say it is my impression that he is a young man with a very
bright future. And it is my strong sense that he will not suffer from the
corrosive bitterness that hangs like miasma over your last email.

just too many of them. But you can do something, and the difference between
doing something and doing nothing is everything." Daniel Berrigan
