Ambrose, bishop of Milan, on Isaiah 1:17, Ps 146:9 & 132:15. Honoring widows and aiding orphans would lessen God’s wrath. This good deed is a metaphor for a future spiritual reality.

Are we too wise these days for this kind of duality— promises of future spiritual realities and temporal works (that make you get off the prayer couch) reinforcing each other?

How can you honor the widow?

AURELIUS AMBROSIUS (AMBROSE) (340- 397) Treatise Concerning Widows "This is mentioned as the only cause which will mitigate the wrath of God against [Israel's] sin, if they honour the widow, and execute true judgment for minors, for thus we read: Judge the fatherless, deal justly with the widow, and come let us reason together, saith the Lord! And elsewhere: 'The Lord shall maintain the orphan and the widow. And again: 'I will abundantly bless her widow. Wherein also the likeness of the Church is foreshadowed."

People marching in a Pride parade, while others look on. Some of the people marching are wearing black witches hats, and two people are holding up pro-Palestine signs -- one reads, "Queer as in FREE PALESTINE" with a Palestinian flag, and the other sign reads, "LIBERATION FOR ALL" with a trans flag and a Palestinian flag.

Celebrating 4 years at Black Remote She today!

Launching the Black Remote She platform during a leap year was divine timing.

While I’m a living and breathing occupant on this Earth, I want to continue to fight for our collective liberation and speak out against those that refuse to aid and support our liberation.

We will forever be entitled to joy, care, and liberation 💜

MLK Jr was a fighter for both racial equality AND for the working and poor masses! His firmly held beliefs in liberation from capitalism are mostly "conveniently" left out of the many articles and speeches that are released on MLK Jr day. Weirdly enough it is the very moderates/centrists/liberals that love to invoke his name at every possible chance that would talk down to him if he were alive. He was and will always be a true comrade of the people and the shared struggle against capitalism! One of my favorite quotes from him outright states how white moderates are the real roadblocks to equality. His words have been shown to be true of communities of all kinds throughout the decades. The most recent being the struggle of the LGBTQIA+ communities and gay marriage.

The quote:

"First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."

Too many moderates/liberals hold back and demand that oppressed folks hear words to the effect of "Oh I agree with you, but it just isn't the right time for you." Telling people that are openly being oppressed that they "have to wait" until those moderates themselves feel "safe enough" to openly do anything is truly fucked up. They have their privileged and dictate when people that are being attacked and murdered are "allowed" to live. When they do finally feel "safe" enough to "stand" with the oppressed. They go all-in on making sure they are ready with the "good optics" of photo-ops and nice words. Much like how the loser dem leaders chose to wear Kente cloths and telling people to vote harder instead of doing their jobs to actually make the fucking laws get changed. Once cameras and mics are off, they just go back to business as usual and keep bowing to the demands of conservatives. AND they went on to support even more funding to the very police that were and still are murdering POC! They supported more money to the military industrial complex that profits from weapons of war being pumped into the pig stations. They support private prisons who's whole profits come from more and more people (especially POC) being locked up!
