Protest and Vote: March to the Polls

As people of faith we must engage the public square. Jesus was always amongst the people addressing their issue. If we are to be like Jesus we must deal with the things that are adversely affection our people. In the public sector we have to vote.  It isn't protest or vote but rather we must protest and vote.


Frederick Douglas put it this way:
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lighting. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without demand. It never did and it never will.
