Stand Up for Love - October 22 Coalition

October 22 Coalition honors Stolen Lives in the United States of America. Families, friends, and concerned individuals across the country unite to protest police violence that steals hundreds of lives annually. The usual victims are black and brown people who lack wealth. Since last October, however, numerous Caucasians have also fallen victim to overuse of force by police - even in affluent neighborhoods. Sadly, the dead include elders, children, and disabled people. It has been estimated (because Americans are not allowed to keep records on this) that roughly 50% of victims in death-by-police episodes were mentally ill people, like my brother, Larry Neal. Destiny's Child sings about caring at the video embedded below and at http://youtu.be/vyW-SnO7jk4 on YouTube.

A few of my efforts to stand up for love in obedience to God's will that we speak for the poor and oppressed and everyone who is appointed to destruction ~Proverbs 31:8-9.
