Hello Subscribers! The revised edition of Crossing the Line launches tomorrow, October 7! And I’m back on the road talking about how immigration has been weaponized to drive democracy into crisis.
My goal is to aid in the building of the Resistance Choir, singing in glorious harmony, This is not the people we wish to be, one book talk, keynote address, and immigration study circle at a time.
I spent the weekend with my Amnesty International family, where someone dubbed my upcoming event schedule Sarah’s Sweet Resistance Tour.
Don’t you just love that?
Today, I’ll be in person at the Woods Hole Library in Falmouth, Massachusetts. Hope to see you there.
Over the weekend, I was in conference with the mightiest of human rights defenders, as I said.
And last week, I joined discussions in North Carolina, North Texas, and Minneapolis, with academic, faith-based, and advocacy groups, respectively, who’ve adopted Crossing the Line to guide them in their commitment to stand up to the demagogues and profiteers who are making bank off the “brokenness” of the US immigration system.
When detention of peace-seeking people is the point; when dehumanization is a feature, not a bug; when evil walks the land once more and the only way to confront it is together, how will you stand up for human rights, human dignity, and human decency?
Start by listening to this amazing conversation with the good folks at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in Minneapolis, who understand that we only have a democracy if we fight for it. And we only have a democracy if we remember our shared humanity.
