On Saturday morning, I got on a plane home to California after spending two full days on the ground in Minneapolis.  I was one of more than 600 clergy who had answered the call from MARCH, a multi-faith organization in Minneapolis, inviting faith leaders from around the country to come, bear sacred witness to what was happening on the ground there, and support the community by participating in the general strike and day of action that had been called for Friday, January 23rd. It was a sobering and inspiring visit. As I got on the plane Saturday morning, I was leaving feeling chilled more by the pernicious presence of a full-on federal occupation than the 20 below temperatures outside.
