Uncommon Martyrs - The Plowshares Movement and the Catholic Left (Paperback)


""Plowshare activists are for more dangerous to the US government than any rapist or murderer or terrorist. Because we are promoting nonviolence.""-Jean Gump, imprisoned for a plowshare action

""What is clear throughout, however, is that members of Plowshares are willing to risk alienation, physical injury, the rupture of relationships and prison, and, as Wilcox observes, like heroes of the past, 'they are greatly hated and feared while they live, a fate reserved for all uncommon martyrs'.""-Hudson Valley Writers Guild
