Gumbleton never caught flak for that - but when he admitted publicly that he had been abused by clergy in the church as a child, THEN the church made him resign.

True. The church does not. However, there have been individual acts of courage throughout the years by priests, nuns, and others who have fought fascism and given aid to the poor. Bishop Thomas Gumbleton, Archdiocese of Detroit, was arrested numerous times while protesting the Vietnam War.
