I understand not everyone in my audience shares my faith practices, and that’s okay. I’m not here to preach to you about conversion. However, I would be misusing my platform and my voice if I did not speak truth to power as loudly as I possibly can in these moments.
I don’t intend on sharing political content often. It’s not what I want to do. I am an author who writes books, and I am an editor who works with people on theirs. However, declining to take a side in this environment only helps the oppressor, and I refuse to do that. I know where I stand and with whom.
“We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” — Elie Wisel, Holocaust survivor and author of Night.
