It makes perfect sense to protest and oppose an authoritarian and oppressive government. For those living in the U.S., that work needs to start at home. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/the-us-nee...
You can fairly criticize both parties if either of them say they won’t start new wars.
This will not end well for the people of Iran. Our fates are tied together.
Grateful for the resilience of Pasadena Mennonite Church! anabaptistworld.org/pasadena-chu...
Sometimes it takes space to recognize our own self-worth. I am grateful for the people who journeyed with me and helped me see myself more clearly. I hope we can all find spiritual friends who support us in this way. anabaptistworld.org/my-softened-...
David Brooks ends his tenure at the Times with a column that's seemingly oblivious to the tyranny we face in the United States. So long, won't miss you.
There’s no question that the Iranian regime is brutal and that the people of Iran need self-determination. U.S. military intervention will not lead to the justice the people of Iran long for, however. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/dont-let-t...
Distressing news that showcases the U.S. plan to occupy Gaza ongoing. This is not a ceasefire, it is not self-determination, and no plan for peace. zeteo.com/p/trump-gaza...
You can oppose the Iranian regime, as you should, and also oppose U.S. military intervention in Iran, as you should.
Antisemitism is a clear problem on the U.S. right wing, but Christian Zionism is not the answer. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/if-you-wan...
The Trump Administration is tying Jewish safety to opposing to Palestinian freedom, cooperation with ICE, and supporting their anti-DEI agenda. Mutual aid and support can counter this. Thanks to my friend Rabbi Ari Lev for speaking to this. www.jta.org/2026/02/11/i...
It is not every day that I agree with a pastor from LMC, but these words from Mark Wenger are worth listening to. If you can't hear them from a brown, queer pastor, try Mark's words on for size. anabaptistworld.org/is-this-real...
Bad Bunny showed us that hope is resistance. It’s crucial that we hold on to that hope and not doom-scroll our way to despair. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/bad-bunny-...
Thank you, Bad Bunny, for washing away the bad taste left by the ADL’s ad.
It’s amazing to me that Sheriff Bilal can, in one breath, call ICE “fake wannabe law enforcement,” and in the next claim she’s just following the law when she allows them in her courthouse kidnap people. That’s not justice. It’s political posturing.
20 killed in Gaza, over a hundred in Nigeria, as well as 25 arrested in the West Bank. U.S. imperialism is a scourge on us all. www.dropsitenews.com/p/isral-kill...
I attended my first Hope for the Future gathering last weekend. It was a painful reminder of the consistency of white supremacy in our world, but also the hope and resilience of people of color. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/when-it-co...
I was honored to stand with hundreds of others today in Philadelphia's City Council in support of the ICE Out package of bills. Below is the testimony I offered:
Don’t succumb to despair and cynicism. Instead, publicly demonstrate, engage in noncooperation, and build alternatives. open.substack.com/pub/jonnyras...
Reminder, demonstrations are just one of many tools to disrupt and confront authoritarianism. Criticizing them because you want direct action isn’t helpful. We can do many things and offer many points of entry.
Say what you will about the strategy of disrupting a worship service, but do not suggest it is not a Christian thing to do. One of the only things we are certain about, when it comes to Jesus, is that he was an insurrectionist who caused a riot at the Temple.
I was honored to be part of this group of faithful clergy making our communities safe! share.inquirer.com/sJMtQb
"You don’t 'significantly reform' fascism. You need to crush it." Thank you, Will Bunch. www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...
Jesus’ call for enemy love is subversive, not accommodating. If we really want to love our enemies, we need to undo the systems of oppression that are harming them. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/how-do-you...
There is no ceasefire in Gaza. www.dropsitenews.com/p/israel-esc...
ICE robs its officers, its supporters, and its victims of the shared humanity Jesus calls us to. jonnyrashid.substack.com/p/loving-you...
Trump's secret police is killing people.
