Nearly 2,000 attendees, animated by Pope Francis’s call to be merciful, “to grown in a love which is courageous, generous, and real,” attended the 19th annual Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice.
I wonder about the Church’s collective inaction and silence, in response to this pillaging of black bodies. I wonder how it drifted from the message of this revolutionary Jesus: challenging the corruption of his society; flipping tables in anger at misplaced priorities; traveling, on foot, to the margins, rather than ever suggesting that the marginalized, in their despair, should somehow find him. Consistently affirming that their lives mattered. The poor, the afflicted, the hungry—he was specific, because the system around him was constructed to deny the value of those specific lives.
I hope you have made the same connections that I have, and recognize that this – fifty human beings murdered – is what your homophobia looks like.
