Father I am beyond praying, I am begging for an end to: apartheid; the crushing, cruel, violent oppression of Palestinians; the blockade of the open-air prison of Gaza. I’ve lived in the Holy Land & wrestled with my faith ever since. God bless Palestine with freedom & justice.

Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries. For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday. She loved singing, dancing, & being with family. She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊

If the army of any other regime was to raid one of the world’s holiest sites, ransack it, shoot rubber bullets, tear gas the worshippers inside, and assault medics on camera, it would be all over intentional news. But Israelis get a pass. It’s “complicated.” Colonial impunity.
