Bishop Romero
Oscar Romero was/is an inspiration to the poor of El Salvador just as MLK was/is to minorities in America. He chose to stand (and eventually die) with the oppressed in his country. He is worth your time to google and learn more about the political strife in the country, and how the US supported the regime that killed Salvadoran peoples.
Though a tragic story of a life cut short, we remember his own words to his persecutors that live long after his death: "we bless you and pray for you."
Viva libertad!
