FAST FOR GAZA: "Tuesday, November 26"


Fasting is an ancient practice--not simply Christian, but rooted in traditions around the world committed to compassion and surrender.  I'll be joining this one-day fast on Tuesday, not because I expect it to change things on the ground, but because I believe it's time for a serious and confessional approach to American violence.  The starving of Gaza's children, the malnutrition unleashed, the AI-driven destruction of families, homes, hospitals and ecosystems--it's funded by American lawmakers, blessed by American taxpayers and fully and terribly wrong.  Join the fast on Tuesday.  And let me know what you experience, and how you connect to movements of resistance and liberation along the way.
