BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.
The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:
“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Jesus became a refugee. Matthew’s Gospel insists that how we see the vulnerable reveals whether we truly see Christ. Faithfulness requires recognition, especially when fear or a despotic leader distorts our vision in seeing the "least of these." #Matthew25 #JesusTheRefugee #ImageOfGod #HumanDignity

ICE commits atrocities knowing they’re being filmed. They don’t care. They act with impunity.
