How does a man give up his life for someone he never met before? This man has been called by many titles: Saint of World War II, Holy Prisoner, Saint of Concentration Camps, Saint of the Press, Saint of Aviation, Saint of Progress, and Saint of the Poor. But I think the one he would prefer is "Catholic Priest".

The devil uses any means to kill us. For so many years, in the United States, the Polish people have been the brunt of very poor ethnic jokes. It is true, every new group coming into our free society inherits the suffering that the minority group before them endured.

It's like being a freshman in college. The only difference is, growing up out of the persecution is swifter, but the freshman is only degraded for a year, not a lifetime. It gets so bad that the minority - to become one of "the guys" - often pokes fun at itself! And then, most tragically, everyone believes it and the world is cheated of an extraordinary people.
