👏🏻 And we need to support our brothers and sisters in Christ by doing the same. I stopped shopping at Target when it showed what it truly was.
Target made its choice—and so have Black consumers.

The National Black Church Initiative isn’t playing PR games. No more performative marketing while treating Black communities like disposable income streams.

I thought nationalists who like to claim Christ were supposedly against trafficking and slavery?

Deportation means to deport an individual to their original country. This is not deportation. It is even worse.

Morally bankrupt. Such filthy white-washed tombs, as Jesus said.

Don’t look away. This is what Libya’s migrant detention facilities look like. This is what Trump is doing.

Amnesty International called Libya’s migrant detention centers a “hellscape,” where beatings and sexual violence are rampant and there are many reports of trafficking and even slavery.

This is obviously disobeying Christ’s commands. So much for vouching that he is Christian. Christian implies allegiance to Jesus Christ, which the Bible says is following his commands. “…and like it, love your neighbor as yourself.” “Love your enemy…”

Just last year the State Department cited “harsh and life-threatening” conditions in Libya’s detention centers and found that migrants in those facilities, including children, had “no access to immigration courts or due process.”
