(in)authentic ethic of inclusion


authentic ethic of inclusion cartoon by rob goetze. Image shows two men wearing identical hats talking to each other. First person says, "Do you have an authentic ethic of inclusion?" Second replies, "Sure do! Everyone's welcome here." First person: "What about them?" (referring to three people in same panel of cartoon, all wearing different hats from the initial two men. Second replies, "Them who? I don't see anyone..."

This cartoon was inspired by Yvette Flunder in Where the Edge Gathers: Building a Community of Radical Inclusion:
An authentic ethic of inclusion must reach from the center to the farthest margin and work its way back. When we reach for the ones who are the least accepted, we give a clear message of welcome to everyone. Jesus modeled this type of radical inclusivity when he openly received those most despised by society and the religious establishment.
