About this listen

In this episode, we learn the radical choice Katharine makes for her future. But, as with most things in Katharine's life, she is not going to simply go with the flow. Instead, she creates her own path and paves a new way. She is a woman on a mission and nothing - not strikes, riots, prejudice, tornadoes, typhoid, or the KKK - will knock her off course.
The Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament will take the world by storm.
