A great read. Many thanks for posting this.

Although it's only a sidelight, one sentence struck my eye: "A superhighway cutting through a once solid Polish neighborhood and the flight of families to the suburbs hammered away at the parishioner base." Michael Jones has been writing about the destruction of the ethnic Catholic parishes in the big cities by the federal government. This appears to have been deliberate policy, to fragment certain voting blocs. It's great to think that these urban communities are making a comeback.
