It’s ironic that so many people who identify as anti “woke” actually trace their religious heritage to an 18th century revivalist movement called the Great Awakening. Go figure 🤷🏼‍♂️

You’re invited to a screening of the Academy Award winning documentary "No Other Land". Its an opportunity to learn more about the stories of Palestinians and discuss ways that we as people of faith can take action to push for action from those in power.

The fun thing about climate change is that, much like U.S. President Donald Trump himself, it doesn’t give a shit about international borders.

That’s why we should all care about the changes happening at the Environmental Protection Agency this week.

Let's talk about it!!!! It's bad!!!!!!
Trump's administration is screwing us all in a new and creative way: using the EPA!

The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of...household, neighborhood and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.

Now that we know that Newfoundlanders and Labradorians care so much about addressing issues around poverty, and given how we just witnessed how collective action can change policy, I am excited to see how many people will show up at the next anti-poverty rally,

I wish that people who are so outraged that the Salvation Army won’t be able to collect donations at the mall in #YYT anymore, would show even an ounce of that outrage at the obscenity that so many people are still forced to rely on services from groups like the Salvation Army in the first place.

Figure I’d join Bluesky because living in #YYT these days it might be the only blue sky I see for a while.
