Today in Peace and Justice History
33,000 women marched in New York City demanding the right to vote.
Known as the "banner parade" because of the multitude of flags and
banners carried, it began at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and continued
until long after dark, attracting a record-breaking crowd of spectators.
Motor cars brought up the rear decorated with Chinese lanterns;
once darkness fell, Fifth Avenue was a mass of moving colored lights.

Objectifying Woman through a "Cause"
Ok people let's get our priorities straight here....
Breast Cancer is NOT about "saving boobs" or any of those ridiculous slogans. Breast Cancer is a disease that affects the ENTIRE body of a woman; it just happens to begin in the breasts. So all these slogans of "I love boobies", "save the tatas" etc etc etc. are nothing more than objectifying women by limiting them to one part of their body INSTEAD of understanding that women suffering from Breast Cancer also have problems in the rest of their body caused by the cancer. Where are all the Feminists? Feminists seem to always be shouting that they want to be treated like Human beings and not object YET it seems that none of them get upset by this commercial trend of "Boob-Mania". I guess I'm just different cause I actually care about women for being human beings and not just one part of their bodies. Thank you momma for teaching me how to respect women like St. Joseph respected Mother Mary

Equally Blessed
Just because you are straight DOES NOT mean you are more blessed or favored by God. We are all EQUALLY BLESSED because we are made in the Image and Likeness of God. We are called to heal and reconcile not abuse and marginalize. On this #SpiritDay I choose to be God's instrument of love and justice to all those who "cry" out for a simple embrace. There's already enough chaos in this world. Let us all work together and be co-creators of community and harmony! :)
