Father Michael Pfleger of Chicago's Saint Sabina Church has stirred up much controversy over the years by using the power of his pulpit to battle inequalities in his South Side parish. This has made him an outspoken hero to some and a renegade to others in the Catholic Church hierarchy. Evanston filmmaker Bob Hercules's comprehensive new film captures Pfleger's charisma and his passion for activism, while exploring issues of racism, theology, and the role of the media. Hercules will attend the screening.
