Wisdoms from the Journey - Vol VIII (Jan thru Oct 2014)

And the list goes on & on … and the abuses go on & on … and still far too
few Americans are stepping up to take a stand.
My Friends, there is a reason why we revere Mahatma Gandhi & Martin
Luther King Jr. ... It's because they got it Right ... They saw what was wrong with
their societies, and then they became beacons of change. And when they did so,
they didn't merely rant or complain, nor did they succumb to the delusion that they
could use the system to fix the system … No, we revere these men -- and all those
men & women who acted then & act today with similar courage & forthrightness -
- because they ACTIVELY REFUSED TO COMPLY with the injustices they were
witnessing.
Well, my Friends, it's high time we did the same … There are literally
dozens of current causes begging for your civil disobedience.
Please join hands with one of them today ... Thank you.
"One has a moral responsibility
to disobey unjust laws."
~ Martin Luther King Jr.
"Protest beyond the law is not a departure from democracy;
it is absolutely essential to it." ~ Howard Zinn
