Religion News Service columnist Jana Riess reflects on counsel from the late LDS scholar Melissa Inouye.
Scholar Melissa Inouye, shown in 2019, died Tuesday, April 23, 2024. She was 44.She indicated that it’s not enough to cry our tears and mourn an individual who was taken much too soon. On top of that grief, we have a debt to pay: It’s our job to further their work. In fact, she was quite specific about it:
Now we’ll be meeting without her, and there will be tears and regrets. Yet the work goes on. Melissa would want the work to go on. So perhaps you will carry on Melissa’s work by openly naming inequality when and where you see it, even if — especially if — well-meaning people try to defend injustice by trying to convince you that’s what Jesus would want.
