这篇历史性的文章通过倡导种族平等的宗教姐妹和兄弟的镜头来考虑护理在20世纪60年代民权运动中为社会正义所做的工作。这篇文章考察了天主教护士在20世纪中期与非裔美国人的合作，这些工作发生在普遍的贫困和种族剥夺的社会条件下，这些条件与严重的健康后果有关。历史方法论是在“作证”的框架内使用的，这是一个经常与民权运动有关的术语，也是姐妹们自己使用的术语。研究了20世纪中期涉及护士的两种情况：阿拉巴马州塞尔玛的民权运动和伊利诺伊州芝加哥的种族正义行动。书中记录了20世纪中期天主教护士长们的思想和行为，包括那些试图彻底改变不公正体制的护士姐妹们。
This historical article considers nursing's work for social justice in the 1960s civil rights movement through the lens of religious sisters and brothers who advocated for racial equality. The article examines Catholic nurses' work with African Americans in the mid-20th century that took place amid the prevailing social conditions of poverty and racial disempowerment, conditions that were linked to serious health consequences. Historical methodology is used within the framework of “bearing witness,” a term often used in relation to the civil rights movement and one the sisters themselves employed. Two situations involving nurses in the mid-20th century are examined: the civil rights movement in Selma, Alabama, and the actions for racial justice in Chicago, Illinois. The thoughts and actions of Catholic sister and brother nurses in the mid-20th century are chronicled, including those few sister nurses who stepped outside their ordinary roles in an attempt to change an unjust system entirely.
