Adam Russell Taylor, the president of Sojourners, a Christian social justice group, said such remarks remind him of "the prophet Isaiah, who forewarned us that woe to you that call evil, good, and good, evil".
The resounding vigil chant directed toward Congress each week is simple: “What time is it?” asks Sojourners’ the Rev. Adam Taylor. “Time for moral courage,” we all chant back.
You are invited to join Faithful Witness Wednesdays throughout the month of March, as people of faith gather on the Capitol grounds to call on Congress to take action. Sign up for the March 19 or the Mach 26 events, which are organized by Sojourners and the Washington Interfaith Staff Community.
NPR's Michel Martin speaks with Rev. Adam Russell Taylor of Sojourners, a Christian social justice group that's holding weekly vigils on Capitol Hill in protest of the Trump administration.
“USAID was chosen as a first agency to target because there was a belief that most Americans don’t know what USAID does or support these development and humanitarian programs,” Taylor said during a March 12 “moral courage” vigil convened by numerous interfaith advocacy organizations.
