Nugget Boycott: Week Two

Dr. Melissa Browning is at it again! This week she writes on The Huffington Post about the recent developments in the ongoing Chick-fil-a saga.

“…each time I walk past a Chick-fil-A without stopping in, I reaffirm my commitment to not contribute to an organization that marginalizes people based on their sexual orientation. In this small act, I am paying attention to my own moral formation. The decisions we make each day, especially the ordinary ones, shape the people we are becoming. In boycotting, I am less concerned about Chick-fil-A’s reaction, and more concerned about my own conscience. Changing ourselves is the first step in creating change in our world.”

Right on, Dr. Browning! Check out the article here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/melissa-browning-phd/the-nugget-boycott-week-two_b_1696104.html
