So great! Honestly I think adults need to hear it explained like this too. Words like “injustice” are so loaded in this political climate, that using phrases like “it’s not fair!” may break through to people who otherwise couldn’t hear it. Ella is reading a book at school about migrant workers called Fresh Fruit broken bodies. You have inspired me to find a way to talk to her about it in terms of the value that God places on our farm workers in terms of your justice pillars. Thankfully, ice cream works with teens too 😊
At Bible study tonight we talked about two movies that tee up justice themes: Muppet Christmas Carol and Robin Hood - more great conversation starters for economic justice!
Jenny Bailer emailed me about the Parenting for Peace and Justice resources she used with her kids in the '90s. They look fabulous! goodreads.com/book/show/1679589.Parenting_for_Peace_and_Justice

So well said Kim! There’s so much throughout the Bible about day laborers - so important. I can’t wait to hear how the conversations go!
