Silent Servants...

... of the Used, Abused, and Utterly Screwed Up.

A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...
with a more jaundiced eye than ever...
and lots of ellipses for you to fill in the missing text...

Another black day in history

Tomorrow:

The Thibodaux Massacre of 1887

This is considered the anniversary of this event, one that saw the deaths of many black workers and union members, at the hands of the white population and the Louisiana militia...

We need to bear all these injuries in our memory - an injury to one is an injury to all (except in CUPE Local 59, but that's another story).
