Post-Inaugural Thought
Thanks to Sojourners for this inspiring statement in a week in which we remember Dr. King for one day and "celebrate" the return of G.W. Bush for four:
"A time comes when silence is betrayal. Even when pressed by the
demands of inner truth, men do not easily assume the task of
opposing their government's policy, especially in time of war.
Nor does the human spirit move without great difficulty against
all the apathy of conformist thought, within one's own bosom and
in the surrounding world."
