victory & loss: week 24, 2017
victory: The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe gained ground with a federal judge ruling that approval of the Dakota Access Pipeline violated the law in certain aspects. The operations have not stopped yet, so we can pray that this would not be an empty victory.
loss: Philando Castille’s assassination has not been vindicated in the justice system. Once again, fear of losing one’s life is justification for killing the other. Fear. Not threat. Fear is becoming cemented and centered as the new American Idol. In the name of fear, every action is justified. In the name of fear, our Savior was crucified. Lord, have mercy upon us, and come soon.
