All across the country, the bosses are burning our contracts. Documents that once offered a guarantee of steady if modest raises and some measure of protection against arbitrary employment policies today find better use as kindling. Only one question remains: Will we choke on the ashes or dance on the flames?

Marx wrote that "Religion was the opiate of the masses" and reflected an inverted world, away from the material conditions of working people. Marx's words lay claim to an often times, troubling and uncomfortable space in which religious folks separate their beliefs from the work of social justice. Conversly, the domination of the religious right, "mega churches" and prosperity gospel have negated the social justice message that religion has to offer.
