This morning I’m bereft. They hate us. They’re killing us. They’re terrorizing us. They’re torturing us. Most days I can see it and process it to the best of my ability in that moment. I have to put one foot in front of another. I’ve become disciplined in that. And then there are days like this.

@catholiccharities.bsky.social

We need names. We need names to honor the dead. They deserve at least a modicum of dignity even posthumously because they certainly weren't given any when they were killed.

Today in 2015, the body of Alan Kurdi, a three-year-old Syrian child, was found on a beach in Turkey. A photo went viral, sparking awareness & compassion for migrants who drown at sea. Historians now say it was the last time anyone publicly cared about the death of children.
