When black, white and Hispanic people stand together for justice, we win.” This quote truly shows the power of standing for justice. Like Sanders points out, we are “winning” by seeking justice, and by “winning” we are creating the Kingdom of God.

“Ah, I see you are ready to go, Nightingale Sapienti,” Action Andy said to Virgil, dressed in the ceremonial uniform of his all-boy Catholic high school in Wilmington, Delaware. He then smiled, “I hope your time in my outfit would be fruitful one for you.” Virgil returned the favor. “How nice of you, Action Andy,” he told him in a polite one. “What are my orders regarding the Remnants and the South American Catholic school students?” The leader of the Nightingales informed him by saying:…

If I am a bit down and just want to be left alone, I will wear black so I don’t stick out, but I still look like I tried to get dressed and look presentable.

With her poems she was essentially a lyrical mouth piece of the Roman Catholic Church. In the poem, Hildegard describes the scene of the immaculate conception of Christ.
