In a #StateOfTheUnion message on #ThisDayInHistory in 1845, #JamesKPolk called for the United States to expand aggressively to the west. This came of an ideology of #ManifestDestiny -- an explicitly #WhiteSupremacist #Christian vision of racial destiny. See, e.g., #JosiahStrong.

I'm not crying; you're crying!
Thank you, Makenzie, for sharing your heart through Josiah's story and your continued awareness, advocacy, and support for the rare community.

THIS is why I created this book, and I'm so grateful to see that it really is making an impact.
