Dry well said and timely. I especially appreciate the prayer today. So much of the posturing in the halls of power - political, ecclesiastical, academic, economic, and all- is empty and hollow and vain. It is a welcome relief when people take a stand there.
May more and more people do so! But I am aware of how very many people who are seen as small - and indeed of no count at all - who take stands for a lifetime but are seemingly invisible, ghostlike within our culture of spectacle and vanity.
I believe deep within that somehow all of these lives and moments of the marginalized “the least of these” taking a stand moves with the deepest magic of all that moves from before time and carries the whole Creation together toward liberation and salvation.
I am grateful for voices like Booker and you. Thank you!
Beautiful- thanks -

All one. All together. All made new.
