このコンテンツについて
Deceleration’s Marisol Cortez remembers our friend and neighbor Jack Elder who passed away last month, speaking with friends and comrades George Cisneros, Carlos Nicolas Flores, and Leslie Provence. Elder came to national attention in the 1980s for his work in the Sanctuary Movement, which aimed to assist refugees and asylum-seekers from the US-backed wars in Central America. But he was also a math teacher, a friend, a father of five and grandfather of seven and an all-around good neighbor who was active in San Antonio’s movements for social and environmental justice. For many years he volunteered at Catholic Worker House, washing dishes and tending to the gardens there. He walked and rode his bike everywhere, until Parkinson’s made that too difficult, and until the end of his life he cultivated beautiful xeriscaped
front and backyards. In every way he modeled what it means to live close to the Earth and in service to others, and we’re honored to have known and learned from him.
