Celebrating Black History Month
During my time at Aquinas High School in La Crosse, I was privileged to have a young Sr. Thea Bowman, FSPA, as a teacher during my sophomore year.
I have written previously about Sister Thea, who was the first Black Sister in the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration whose motherhouse is in La Crosse. She was the first African American person I knew.
