I am very grateful for the Moral Movement. I have a sense of how it differs from the Poor Peoples' Campaign or Indivisible's grass roots organizing but I would love for you to tell me. If you have already written it somewhere either send it to me at knotd6634aol.com or point me to the source and I will look it up. I am very grateful for this merger because I admire the leadership of both of you.
I’m a retired cop. Spent years thinking I was serving justice until I realized…
Justice ain’t blind.
It’s just ICE.
So when I read this and saw folks still trying to speak life into broken systems, I had to stop and ask myself: Do we really believe we can litigate our way out of this? Because they tried that during slavery. Tried it again during Jim Crow. And here we are—reading about deportations so blacked out, the UN had to step in just to get the truth out of El Salvador.
And even then, it took threats of criminal contempt to make U.S. lawyers flinch.
I’m not knocking this movement. I’m watching it closely. There’s something sacred here.
But I’ve seen enough behind the curtain to know:
They don’t fear the courts.
They fear consequences.
They fear the people they can’t silence.
So if this is our “moral moment,” we better mean it.

Not just prayer hands.
Not just platform speeches.
But accountability—with teeth.
You don’t need to reply.
But if you read this and felt a chill?
That’s your shadow tapping you on the shoulder.
