Father Michael rarely spoke publicly, preferring to offer comfort and prayers to his parishioners. However, when he saw the injustice of racial prejudice in his community, he felt a powerful urge to pursue change. He knew some would consider it rather improper for a priest to speak out, but he felt it was the right thing to do. He carefully chose the proper words for a public speech, making sure it was clear and prompt. His words, though rare for a man of God, were like powder kegs, igniting a fire in the hearts of the people, urging them to fight for a fairer world. However, his actions angered powerful people, those who cared only for profit and their own advancement. Soon, father Michael found himself in prison, where simple meals of potatoes and watery soup were all he received. Despite this, he clung to his faith, yearning for the day he could once again walk free in a pretty world free of prejudice.
