Singer/Songwriter Sara Groves recently noted that:

“It is one thing to hear about these injustices in the news, but to hear from people who, compelled by God's love for the oppressed, have entered into people's lives at this level is something else entirely. This is an incredible opportunity to hear from and join with people who are the history-makers of our day.”
