Frayed bonds are the image of the American people. We are all loosely connected by our ethnicity but due to the choices of our ancestors, our bonds are frayed. Genocide, slavery, and misogyny are common features of the American story. I believe we will not heal these bonds until we are honest about the past and provide restitution to those who were harmed by these policies. Accountability is a mark of maturity but our country has failed in that regard. I refuse to give the United States a pass or a quick justification for it's apathy and violence, both subtle and outright. I love my country so I must fight for justice in this country. I love my God so I am fighting for His church to sacrificially love and serve. Join me on this uncomfortable journey as we try and repair these bonds.
