A Slight Break From "Accents"



     Accents comes out this Friday from Blue Deco Publishing. It is a very nice group and the experience has been enjoyable.

    On 15 May 1891 Pope Leo XIII issued the defining work on social justice, the encyclical Rerum Novarum (On Revolutionary Change). Its influence extends far beyond Roman Catholic circles circles
.

    In an age when the traditional blue-collar labor force is changing (some would say disappearing),, a glance at this document is worth the time. Consider how Trump won the Rust Belt in 2016, how UK Labour is on the ropes before next month;s General election, the collapse of the French Socialist Party, and the Social Democrat Party of Germany's failure to win its stronghold of North Rhine Westphalia in yesterday's state elections.

   It is not about the party label, but about treating people fairly.
