Book Description
Angels with Angles is the true story of two nuns who started an inner-city daycare in 1969 against the wishes of the Catholic Church. Then Sister Berta Sailer and Sister Corita Bussanmas proceeded to break rules and sometimes laws to grow Operation Breakthrough into one of the largest and most respected of its kind in the country. These two colorful crusaders fearlessly and sometimes foolishly, took on a bishop, the Catholic diocese, a few politicians, landlords, and even the Internal Revenue Service to sustain their mission to keep Operation Breakthrough. To aid in their fight, they enlisted a memorable cast of draft dodgers, hippies, Black Panthers, activists, and socialites. Operation Breakthrough has now grown into an $8 million early learning center that serves about 400 children and their families every day. Angels with Angles reveals how these sisters of the hood have given thousands of children born into crushing poverty the chance for brighter tomorrows.
