It has since become one of the most-reprinted texts by Merton.
In 1977, when I was a young editor of the Catholic Worker, Jim Forest shared with me a letter he received from Thomas Merton in 1966. I edited and published it in the CW under the title "Letter to a Young Activist." It speaks to our own moment better than anything I can think of.
Since I learned that Gustavo Gutierrez passed, I've been thinking of him and the time I spent with him @bcstm in the summers of 2008 and 2010. I'm still amazed at the joy he radiated in all he said and did. Here is my favorite story with Gustavo Gutierrez:
The best way to honor the UCA martyrs is to live like them. Resist capital. Take the side of the poor. Call out war crimes. Criticize U.S. imperialism. Preach the God of liberation. Speak woe to the rich. Organize with oppressed peoples. UCA martyrs, pray for us.
