À propos de ce contenu audio
Boston Globe reporters Walter Robinson and Mike Rezendes and humarn rights leader Jeri Laber on this edition of Fresh Air. They're part of the investigative staff that broke the story of sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. The staff has written a new book about the scandal called Betrayal: The Crisis in the Catholic Church. In January of 2002, the Globe published a two-part series revealing the details of a decades-long cover-up by the Boston Archdiocese. They told how Father Geoghan, a pedophile priest, had been shuttled from parish to parish, and of the millions of dollars of hush money paid to victims to keep the story secret. Jeri Laber's one of the founders of Helsinki Watch, which eventually became Human Rights Watch. Her new book, The Courage of Strangers: Coming of Age with the Human Rights Movement is a memoir that is part personal history and part history of the human rights movement. Laber was executive director of Helsinki Watch from 1979 to 1995. She's been awarded the Order of Merit by President Vaclav Havel on behalf of the Czech Republic, and she's also won the prestigious MacArthur Grant. (Broadcast Date: June 25, 2002)
