On Fridays, BTSF offers links to other discussions about race & Christianity. It's an opportunity for you to read about racial justice & Christianity from other perspectives, and for me to give props to the shoulders on which I stand...

ReplyDeleteKatelin, Matthew Soerens of World Relief shared this article yesterday on Twitter. I wish the whole article was available without a paid subscription, but it's interesting to at least think about how the two issues of trafficking and immigration might play off of each other, exacerbating the respective injustices, and conversely how immigration reform might aid in the fight against trafficking domestically. Have you read anyone's else's take on how immigration reform might move along the fight against trafficking? (Maybe a free, available to the public article?)
Thanks John! Such an important link. Here are some other resources I know of, but I am sure there are other articles out there that i don't know about:
