Toppling Junipero Serra statues ‘fails test’ of history, CA Catholic bishops say | EWTN News Nightly
A statue of Catholic St. Junipero Serra was torn down in San Francisco, CA on June 20, and in Los Angeles on the same day, rioters pulled down a statue of St. Junipero. The Catholic bishops of California say the saint was “ahead of his time” in defending the rights of indigenous peoples. Matthew Bunson, executive editor and Washington bureau chief of EWTN News, takes a closer look at the life of this saint.
