William Weston Patton, Congregationalist, quotes missionaries to the Cherokee nation opposing their ethnic cleaning from their ancestral grounds. A great torrent of iniquity, they are led by God in this “contest”.

Should missionaries have focused efforts on converting souls?

How can you pray for those in such a contest? Work to stop torrents of iniquity, starting at least with your testimony against it?

Women’s Rights Are Essential to Democracy. Why Do Philanthropists Treat Investments in Women as a Special Interest? - Ms. Magazine

In the last two months, the Supreme Court heard two case to limit nationwide access to abortion care. The chaotic state of play for abortion rights in the United States illustrates the consequences of failing to integrate efforts to strengthen democracy into strategies for advancing gender equity and vice versa. For philanthropic leaders, the twin goals of strengthening democracy and advancing gender equity presents a compelling case for simultaneous investment. Divorcing gender justice from democracy is inconsistent ideologically, and it’s also irrational and unnecessarily expensive. To separate them is to delay success and pay for it many times over.

Noticed your interesting bio. This is a little film of our House in the ruined village of Hallsands, Devon. The sea has taken much of what you see away. We can only access by ladder .

Breaks my heart. I miss that sea and its rhythms so much.

Any millionaire #philanthropists on mastodon, feel free to contact me. Damon Albarn of Blur owns a farm house near the next beach. He used to pop round from time to time.
