Sinopse

An awakening has been happening across our society. People increasingly recognize how long-standing, systemic issues have prevented many from flourishing. But often Christians are not sure how best to engage. Does it help to march and hold signs? What can we do to contribute and not further complicate things?
Faith-rooted justice advocate and activist Michelle Ferrigno Warren equips Christians to join Christ's restorative work in the world. In nearly three decades of experience, she left much of her privilege to work alongside the poor and marginalized in the restoration of individuals and communities, collaborating with community leaders, marching in streets, and meeting with and speaking truth to power. She says, "How you show up is just as important as showing up." From the grassroots to the grass tops, Warren invites us to understand our place in this moment and learn from those who have gone before: the poets and prophets who call us to resist oppression and injustice.
Biblical, historical, and contemporary examples give us ways to walk in God's righteousness, truth, and peace. We can better understand our shared solidarity, persevere in the midst of struggle, bring people along, and remain rooted in joy as we continue the good work of kingdom justice.

    Late one July night in 2020, armed men, identified only by the word POLICE written across their uniforms, began snatching supporters of Black Lives Matter off the street in Portland, Oregon, and placing them in unmarked vans. These mysterious actions were not carried out by local law enforcement or even right-wing terrorists, but by the US Border Patrol. Why was the Border Patrol operating so far from the boundaries of the United States? What were they doing at a protest that had nothing to do with immigration or the border? 
     
     
      
    Nobody Is Protected: How the Border Patrol Became the Most Dangerous Police Force in the United States is the untold story of how, through a series of landmark but largely unknown decisions, the Supreme Court has dramatically curtailed the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution in service of policing borders. The Border Patrol exercises exceptional powers to conduct warrantless stops and interrogations within one hundred miles of land borders or coastlines, an area that includes nine of the ten largest cities and two thirds of the American population. 
     
     
      
    Mapping the Border Patrol's history from its bigoted and violent Wild West beginnings through the legal precedents that have unleashed today's militarized force, Reece Jones reveals the shocking true stories and characters behind its most dangerous policies.

    Do you keep an eye on world events through mainstream media? If so, chances are you have missed out on many essential news stories from countries around the world. 
    While many news outlets will cover European, U.K., and U.S. news in great detail, they often leave out essential news from other continents, especially Africa. 
    And yet, that doesn’t mean that newsworthy events occur there every day, just like in the UK. 
    In fact, some of the most newsworthy stories have occurred in Africa in recent years. 
    If you want to learn more about the conflicts of African communities, you have come to the right place. 
    Introducing, But, Whose Fault? Part One, a true story based in Ghana, where two AK-47s mysteriously vanished before reappearing without ammunition. 
    Not only does this book shed light on an incident that is still to be answered to this day, but it also highlights one of the many conflicts that African communities go through and are never displayed on the big screen. 
    In many ways, the conflict surrounding the missing rifles is a point of convergence of the exploitation of Africa and the negligence shown toward the local people and their value to the world. 
    It is one of the main reasons it continues to go unnoticed in many countries, yet it is a story that must be told. 
    Inside, But, Whose Fault? Part One, discover: 
    ●	essential background information about the local people and community 
    ●	the political context behind the events that unfolded 
    ●	the initial factors that influenced the confrontation 
    ●	the company behind the Nguvu mining project 
    ●	the disappearance, search, and fallout from the missing rifles 
    If you are at all interested in the rich history and real-life stories of Africa, this book is a must-read.
