When an Arab militia rampaged through Maryam Suleiman’s village in the Darfur region of Sudan last year and lined up men and boys to massacre, the gunmen were blunt about their purpose. “We don’t want to see any Black people,” a militia leader said, adding mockingly: “We don’t even want to see black trash bags.” To make his point, Maryam recalled, he shot a donkey because it was black. Then the militia members executed men and boys who belonged to Black African ethnic groups, she said. “They shot my five brothers, one after the other,” Maryam told me, describing how...

In 1980, the Chinese government instituted what became known as the "one child" policy, forbidding families from having two or more children without special permission from the government. The government in Beijing feared what they described as an impending "demographic disaster" if the nation's population continued to grow at the current rate seen during that time. It was a brutal approach to what was being seen as an intractable problem. The rules were enforced vigorously, with many women being forced to have abortions or be sterilized. At first, the policy appeared to be having the intended effect and the country's...

There is a term in linguistics called the "drift of the signifieds." In this phenomenon, a symbol remains the same but the meaning attributed to that symbol changes. For example: The red flag of the Bolsheviks, in the early Soviet Union, was the symbol of anarchist revolution, but it later became the symbol of mindless conformity. For another example, consider how the word "gay" has changed in apparent meaning since, say, World War 2.On the immigration issue, in the United States today, there seems to be an opposite effect holding; the actions by certain people, illegal immigrants, have not changed,...

How would Jesus flip their understanding of the kingdom of God on its head in a way that unsettles them and empowers the ones they malign? She has a...
