This moral teaching was so important to our religious ancestors that it made its way into their bible:

Matthew 24:40 — “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me”

And yet here we are, in an age when we perpetuate wars on “The Other” and attempted genocides. Many of today’s maneuvers in these wars are almost hidden and rooted in our history:

The war on women.

The gender pay gap.
