This articles says that all peoples in the world
should have the opportunity to develop themselves
through educational and cultural activities
All peoples...including farmers, laborers, men and women
Historically, culture has been the preserve of
the rich.
The rich have had the money to engage in the arts, music etc.
Poor people don't go to many concert recitals
Historically, the Church has been a patron of
culture.
Vatican II is calling for the Church to be a patron of culture for the poor!
Jesus, may Church leaders
be as
interested in making friends with the poor
as they are in making friends with the rich and powerful
