As the final night of Hanukkah begins, and the lights are kindled in homes and synagogues across the world, we too kindle lights this night. Lights of love to our Jewish siblings whose community is shaken by violence once more.
Lights of solidarity that cast out the illusion that we are not each children of the same God. Lights of justice to weave once more our communities and to repair the breach.
Lights that illumine the true threats and aberration to the divine: racism, poverty, militarism, ecological devastation, and the distorted moral narratives that would cast us as enemies.
We yet hold out the light of redemption. We yet hold the light and in the words of Ella Baker, we “give light” and know “people will find the way.” Let us find our way to one another, America..to justice...to love. -Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II & @liztheo
