I wanted to share with you three reminders that justice is worth the fight. I can’t listen to these recordings without having my soul profoundly stirred. Where justice demands our presence, may we love deeply, live boldly, pray constantly, hope vividly, act relentlessly.
The most haunting song I’ve ever heard – “Strange Fruit” by Billie Holiday.
One of the greatest speeches ever delivered – “I Have a Dream” by Martin Luther King, Jr.
In the fight against injustice, God must be real – “A Knock at Midnight” by Martin Luther King, Jr.
Seek justice ’til Jesus comes.
