Relentless Love
Say what you will, but there’s validity in simply showing up when injustice desires to take over. The people in Minneapolis continue to fight to draw attention to their plight, and the general strike they successfully staged a few weeks ago is a model worth emulating.
We love Michelle Obama, but taking the high road in politics is a recipe for disaster and losing. We can no longer afford that.
When they go low, we go even lower. That’s how you win elections. That should be the model for the remainder of this decade for Democratic leaders. The moral high ground does nothing to protect people from state-sanctioned violence, keep a roof over their heads, or keep their healthcare costs affordable. ENOUGH.
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a radical who advocated for the redistribution of wealth. The final years of his life were treacherous, and when he ultimately, rightfully, came out against the Vietnam War in his ‘Beyond Vietnam’ speech, he was vilified by allies, journalists, and politicians alike.
This Black History Month, we will not lionize the whitewashed King. We will teach, preach, and carry the torch of his radical propositions - true economic and social freedom and justice for all people.
