Eco-Film Screening: “Stewart Udall: The Politics of Beauty”
March 11 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm America/CST
Join the Franciscan Sisters of Our Lady of Perpetual Help and other Franciscans For Earth on Tuesday, March 11, 2025, at 6:30 pm Central via Zoom, for a free screening and discussion of the film “Stewart Udall: The Politics of Beauty.” According to the website, BullfrogFilms.com, this 2023 film is about “the life and legacy of unsung hero Stewart Udall, one of America’s most effective environmentalists in his role as Secretary of the Interior protecting our shared natural heritage and beauty.” The Politics of Beauty examines the trajectory of Udall’s life from his childhood through his Mormon mission, his World War II service, his student years at the University of Arizona, his time in Congress, and then, most significantly, his years as Secretary of the Interior under the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, focusing on his effectiveness as a dedicated, bi-partisan public servant. The film introduces us to the early inception of modern environmental politics, to figures like Aldo Leopold, Rachel Carson, and David Brower. Click here to register for the event.
