16 – The Cristeros – Twentieth Century Crusaders

Monsignor Ignacio Barreiro discusses the Cristeros movement in Twentieth Century Mexico, a magnificent militant expression of popular Catholic crusading for the Faith against a persecuting secularist, liberal/Marxist Mexican government in the 1920s. What caused their growth? How effective was their action? What role did Rome and the American episcopacy play in weakening its impact? Monsignor Ignacio Barreiro tackles all these questions in this exciting talk.
