@HumansSQ Thought you might appreciate the way restorative justice in San Quentin figures in @UniteThePoor political theology. This is visionary messianic politics in practice, the stone rejected becoming cornerstone, justice as reconciliation—not retribution’s closure but Kingdom power.
@lukeburgis 9/ Restorative justice emerges as the root practice of geographic incarnation. Not merely 'criminal justice reform' but incarnational praxis at ground level—the alchemy by which discord is worked into depth, estrangement into belonging, fracture into the fabric of communion.
