She says, “Soulforce & the Equality Ride and our friends and allies with 108Productions and Corpus Christi:Playing with Redemption have a common bond of love and understanding that sustains us in our work. We have been blessed to know the real story of Christ’s redemptive suffering as Ghandi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Came to know that story—we are free only if all are free and no institution can take that freedom away from us.”
