On the 100th anniversary of his birth, a rediscovery of Don Lorenzo Milani, the pastor of Barbiana, the priest of the marginalized, and an extraordinary educator. Unconditional friendship offered to his students was the main path of his educational method, and the recovery of words was the path to human dignity and understanding of the Word of God. As Pope Francis said on the occasion of his visit to Don Lorenzo Milani’s tomb, “For Don Lorenzo, school was not different from his mission as a priest, but the concrete way to fulfill that mission, giving it a solid foundation capable of reaching up to heaven.”
