    Dorothy Day bola americká novinárka a sociálna aktivistka, ktorá sa stala oddanou katolíckou konvertitkou. V 30. rokoch 20. storočia úzko spolupracovala s aktivistom Peterom Maurinom na založení Hnutia katolíckeho robotníka. Toto nenásilné, pacifistické hnutie naďalej spája priamu pomoc chudobným a bezdomovcom s nenásilnou priamou akciou v ich mene.
