The new administration has begun advancing a legislative agenda that threatens the moral fabric of our nation. With policies that endanger immigrant communities, dismantle civil rights, and embolden systems of exclusion, we are witnessing a deliberate rollback of justice under the banner of power and control.
What are we called to do in a time such as this?
We will not meet the rise of white Christian nationalism with silence or compliance.
Now is the time for people of moral courage, spiritual imagination, and radical love to come together. A multiracial, multifaith, intergenerational movement must rise—committed to justice, compassion, and strategic resistance.
We have been here before. And we know what it takes. It takes vision. It takes a Sankofa memory that reaches into the past to retrieve what is good and true. It takes prayer, persistence, the wisdom of our elders, and the audacity of our youth.
Now is the time.
Love God. Love Neighbor. Love Self. Love. Period.
We are back home:

Through Love, we are each created in God’s image and filled with the Divine Spark. No matter whom we love, no matter how we look, no matter where we are on our journey, God’s imprint is in every person of every race/ethnicity, every gender, and every sexual orientation. We believe God speaks many languages and is calling us on many paths to peace—Shalom. We believe that Love put on flesh—brown, poor, Jewish baby flesh—and came to live among us. We believe God lives among us still; we are the living body of Christ. We are the hands, feet, and heartbeat of God. We believe the Spirit of God calls us to freedom, and we are not free until all of us are free.
