Rest In Peace, Maryknoll Sr Mary Grenough, who died today Jan 30 2021, at 87. She worked in the Philippines for 40 years, where she was a pioneer in promoting social justice, in 1971 joining striking sugar cane workers on the Island of Negros, essentially a giant plantation.

Thank you for this tweet, Robert. I remember meeting Sr. Mary during a trip sponsored by the Church Coalition for Human Rights in the Philippines in the late 1980s. She made an incredible impression. It was great to later learn more about her in Penny Lernoux's wonderful book.
