Lessons from Mexico

With religious freedom and the Catholic Church once again under assault in this country, it's worth noting that the Knights already have a history of resistance to religious oppression, which created several saints --through martyrdom-- among priests and brothers of the Order.  Supreme Knight Carl Anderson draws compelling observations from the persecution of the Church in Mexico during the 1930s in this article.

For some historical context, check out this great article about the Feast of the Mexican Martyrs (May 21). Note, the article is down the page a couple of entries.
