Sinead O’Connor’s untimely death is a good time to remember her courageous act of calling out the Pope and the Catholic Church for their aiding and abetting of widespread child rape. This was the first right-wing outrage hysteria I have a clear memory of, and it was an important example of taking advantage of a large audience to speak truth to power. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/sinead-oconnor-pope-saturday-night-live/
