This Vincentian Mindwalk reflects on the “dangerous memory “ of the Exodus and Independence Day in our past, present, and future.

Memorial Day began as a rememberance of those who died in the Civil War and then extended to all wars. What has happened to the visits to cemeteries and parades?
Rereading the Declaration of Independence can be a way of celebrating July 4. It is an amazing document.
