According to Bill McKibben in his forward to Antal's book, Jim's work will help one group after another recognize that they can indeed make a difference, and they must. People of faith have been a crucial part of social change from Americas beginning and we must stand up here. What we cant do is slow down, not even in the blighted age of Trump. Watch for more details and registration information in January, and dont miss this important conversation.
