In this bonus episode of the "Plague" podcast, Michael O’Loughlin visits a Catholic Worker House in Syracuse, N.Y. to explore how Dorothy Day’s movement responded to the H.I.V. and AIDS crisis. Journey into a part of the Catholic Worker that is rarely discussed: how one of the church’s most welcoming and radically hospitable ministries struggled over the issue of homosexuality, even in the face of AIDS. Hear gay Catholic Workers, journalists and authors, long-term H.I.V. survivors and individuals who worked alongside Dorothy Day speak about the complicated reality they faced.
