These are perilous times, and we have much work to do. It is wonderful to see how much work is being done by activists locally, around the country, and around the world. But there is more to do.
Let Freedom Ring! The Liberty Bell may be cracked but “that’s how the light gets in” says Leonard Cohen. Meanwhile “ring the bells that still can ring” with continued action everywhere in every possible nonviolent way as we continue to plant the seeds of justice and peace. You’ve heard the saying “every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings.” Now every time you take an action for justice and peace from a phone call or email to civil resistance you use your Wings of Change.
On this my new website and blog I will still be posting some articles just as I did on Rise Up Times, with the addition of a blog. I am so glad to have a website again.
Subscribe today! Access is always free. Wings of Change isĀ entirely reader supported. Your support is important and essential in these perilous times. Please donate here to WingsofChange.me.
The original Rise Up Times website has been archived but these are still rise up times, and it is even more important that we continue to rise up! Rise Up Times is still on social media: Twitter (X), Facebook, Pinterest, Tumbler, Linked In, and under my name, Sue Ann Martinson, on my personal Facebook page. And also now on Instagram and Tik Tok.
With peace and justice for all,
Sue Ann
