Each step taken, every chant and cry,
every movement for justice,
every insistence on equal rights,
every standard and arm raised for safety,
for the end to brutality and racism at the hands of…
police, government, the system,
each one land home, right to the heart
of what brings true change, what sets aright
the system set in motion against humanity itself.
Revolutionize hope, radicalize grace.
Every effort met with heaven’s support,
earth’s nurturance and the flesh and blood strength
of all who embody truth and justice.
Each one held safely by love.
My sentiments exactly.
I hope to take part in a protest in Norristown, PA to support the public defenders with Black Lives Matter gathering. It will be a year and a day from when I last took part in a demonstration at the courthouse steps. Last year I supported Gov. Wolf of Pennsylvania in his effort to curb gun violence and we all wore orange shirts. Got evidence through selfies I got someone to take of us together.
It’s a wonderful thing to be able to do that. 🙂
