The essay argues the Selma movie links 1965 activism to today, showing King’s marchers facing brutal Alabama authorities and Bloody Sunday.

Blessing of big families echoed by Francis praise
A personal reminiscence links Pope Francis praise of large families to one writer’s childhood. He recalls growing up only boy among five sisters, earlier bullying, hand me downs, Easter bonnet chaos, and longing for a brother. A 1970 pregnancy produced a hoped for son Eddie, miscarriage sorrow, and later comfort from neighbors. The piece reflects on fraternal bonds, family joy, and enduring loss.
