However, we can do even more than preach tolerance and non-violence, and legislate against hate crimes. We can stand with those who are systematically oppressed and speak out against discrimination and for equality and inclusion of all people. Sincerely, Barbara Purdom Christopher Purdom Interfaith Working Group Coordinators The above letter went out on IWG letterhead listing 17 congregations and organizations and 61 clergy from 15 religious traditions.
