Rev. Billy: Radical Forgiveness In Grand Slander Station

January 26, 2015 Rev. Billy Talen and the Stop Shopping Choir, www.PopularResistance.org , , , ,
When I found in the papers that I “attacked a policeman” – I looked at my four year old daughter Lena and then I went to the window and looked at my neighborhood. I have police families who live nearby and they are reading that I attacked one their own? Even without witnesses, videotape evidence or even the willingness of the District Attorney to press charges - they would endanger me in this way. And now Lena has nightmares… It’s a wonder that I’ve been an activist for so long without this kind entrapment. Maybe the humor and music in our approach to protest has protected me. Ultimately, I’ll grow from this. Our singing activism will be braver.
