Free The Nations

As we continue to learn about the horrific acts of colonization and oppression imposed on Palestinians, the Congolese, the Sudanese, and so many more nations across the globe– we’ve created a small guide for both education and action.

At Resolute Magazine, amplifying the voices of marginalized and oppressed communities is of utmost importance.

As believers in Jesus Christ, we stand against genocide and we lament the loss of innocent lives.


May we never forget how greed and the selfish race toward power destroy lives, countries, families, and homes.

May we use our power to amplify the voices of those affected and to speak out against colonization, oppression, and genocide.

May we step outside of our comforts for the sake of others.


Nobody’s free until everybody’s free.

-Fannie Lou Hamer
