“We are called to work for justice and to express rage at injustice. Over and over again, our religious tradition say that the worst injustices are committed by those who care more for money and power and fame and other material signs of success than for each other. And if you find yourself recoiling at this language, thinking it all sounds too trite and too partisan, ask yourself why. Why has the language of justice lost its power? Why have we let it be displaced by partisan rhetoric?… We can do better. In a world with more complex problems and more power to solve them than ever before, we MUST do better.”
