[Dialogue] When did Joe Mathews image shift?

[Charles or Doris Hahn]

Jim,
Bob Fishel and I were sent to Selma the day after the terrible event on the 
bridge.  I was there about a week or ten days and David Scott was sent to 
replace me.  I then was brought home by way of Washington to visit a congressman 
and two senators from Texas whom I knew slightly.  I then returned to Chicago, 
and we helped gather a bus load of Fifthe City Residents to go for the final 
events at Selma.  There are too many stories about the period I was in Selma to 
tell in this brief email.
Charles Hahn

so, I have a question:  what was it that radicalized Joe Mathews?  In 1946, he 
was going on about how his theology had changed because of the war (WWII).  By 
the time of these talks he is all about the social revolution and the radical 
revolution and the people of God are revolutionaries.  What happened?

Was Joe ever engaged in the civil rights movement?  Did he go to Selma?  I have 
testimony that David Scott was there, and he met Betty Pesek there . . . What 
about Bonnie Swain?  did she play a role?
