The Jesuits long ago went hard Left.
Thankfully, BLM has not flourished anywhere near as strongly as I first thought they would. It still exists, but I guess they have run out of liberal towns to burn down for the time being. So the ‘full BLM treatment’ won’t be seen in a sustained manner for a while, if ever again.
Remember “Occupy”? That too had a short shelf life in it’s purest form.
Yes
At a black Baptist church, I saw a fellow wearing a T shirt patterned after the Black Lives Matter logo, but it said “Black Fathers Matter.”
That touches upon the most galling aspect of the BLM movement: it is a misdirection from the true sources of advancement for Black America: faith, family, education, and diligent work. Indeed, those are cardinal virtues for everyone.
In a broader sense, “Black Worship Matters.” If the Lord is taken seriously, then He will bless with not just virtues, but putting them to the right uses. Vice is not just a “lack of virtue” — it is virtue put to a wrong use.
Go into the most wretched Black slums in the country and there are still to be found islands of sanity and order: the Black churches. Thomas Sowell describes his childhood in Harlem during the Depression as ideal because he was under the care of his three maiden aunts who were devoted to his welfare and proper upbringing.
Because it is in the Bible.../s
If one's daily life includes violence, drug dealing, property crimes, murder, and rape, then citizens might call the police regardless of race.
The genesis of BLM was the death of druggie Michael Brown who had just committed strong arm robbery and assaulted a shopkeeper. He was good to go until he tried to disarm a police officer. The Bell Curve in action.
BLM is so yesterday... it’s illegals and pedophiles now.
I'm surprised they had the time.
No, thank you. I don’t embrace racists or terrorists, and #BlackThugsMatter is inherently both.
The USCCB is soooo yesterday also.
Occupy sort of morphed into Occupy ICE, run by Antifa.
Go to hell.
You jesuits are nothing but leftist phony social justice warriors with a robe.
BLM is a black separatist movement of hate. It is not about “racial justice.”
It seems someone trying their VERY BEST to sucker-punch you and bash your head in on concrete is just FINE AND DANDY with any and all Catholics due to “doctrine”.
..........Howsabout suicide?
Jesuit Review? Never mind.
Maybe so, but this is absolute insanity!
Agreed.
