Harriet Beecher Stowe (d. 1896)

I must admit, Sistertech always thought Ms. Stowe was a bit stodgy. But Harriet was one of the “good guys” as far as Sistertech is concerned. She was a champion of human rights long before the term was coined. We give thanks to The One In Charge for Harriet’s passion for pursuing the recognition of the full humanity of African Americans.

Psalm 94:16-23

[16] Who rises up for me against the wicked?
Who stands up for me against evildoers?

[17] If the LORD had not been my help,
my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence.

[18] When I thought, “My foot slips,”
your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.

[19] When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.

[20] Can wicked rulers be allied with you,
those who frame injustice by statute?

[21] They band together against the life of the righteous
and condemn the innocent to death.

[22] But the LORD has become my stronghold,
and my God the rock of my refuge.

[23] He will bring back on them their iniquity
and wipe them out for their wickedness;
the LORD our God will wipe them out.
