Henry Highland Garnett, NY Presbyterian minister, summarizes slavery to Congress. It is theft, pollution of the innocent, incest, murder, blasphemy, defiance of the laws of God. It descecrates the family in mulitple ways. It feeds prejudice.

Today, we have many people seeking to rehabilitate the reputation of slavery, who also champion “family values”.

How can you seek out wickedness in your life and speak out for those abused by it?

"Beautiful Day" is a song by Irish #rock band U2. It is the first track on their tenth studio album, #AllThatYouCantLeaveBehind (2000), and was released as the album's #leadSingle on 9 October 2000. The song was a commercial success, #helping launch the album to #multiplatinum status, and is one of U2's biggest hits to date. Like many tracks from All That You Can't Leave Behind, "Beautiful Day" harkens back to the group's past sound.

@deutrino I am having so much fun.

I feel amazing lately.

I feel like I am actually #helping my situation and the world while I do it.

You have no idea how much it means to me to feel like I have a #purpose again.

I didn't for a long time.

This mean EVERYTHING to me.

So even if it goes nowhere...

I'm doing this for ME. Because I just enjoy it. I never expected a penny.

If it helps me and a few people I deeply care for, then that is also amazing and I want that.

"#Democracy, by its nature, requires #participation. You have to give a damn. That can mean #donating to a campaign, #volunteering as a poll worker, #helping people to register or to get to a voting location. And make your own plan to #vote; then carry it out.

"Being an engaged, vocal #citizen isn’t the easiest thing to do, as #TaylorSwift’s father tried to tell her.

"But she went ahead anyway. And so should we all."
