“Racism is alive and well in our culture, but we often succumb to the lie that it died with institutional slavery and segregation.”

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

“A piety that sees death as the moment of “going home at last,” the time when we are “called to God’s eternal peace,” has no quarrel with power-mongers who want to carve up the world to suit their own ends. Resurrection, by contrast, has always gone with a strong view of God’s justice and of God as the good creator. Those twin beliefs give rise not to a meek acquiescence to injustice in the world but to a robust determination to oppose it.”
