A new book interprets children's show host Mister Rogers as a "fierce peacemaker"
"Fierce" is not a word one would expect to associate with Mister Rogers of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. But Michael G. Long author of Peaceful Neighbor: Discovering the Countercultural Mister Rogers writes that Fred Rogers was a "fierce peacemaker" and his show that spanned over 30 years took on issues of war and peace, hunger, civil rights, and more. Dr. Long, professor at Elizabethtown College introduces us to a countercultural Mister Rogers on Religion For Life.
