This afternoon First Things is joining with fifty other religious and human rights organizations and leaders to protest the recent massacre of Christians in Nigeria, as well as persecution and slaughter of Christians and other minorities living under Shariah rule.

The protest will take place at the Permanent Mission of Nigeria to the United Nations, 828 Second Ave (at 44th Street) in New York. Please join us, beginning at 4:45 pm, to raise your voice of conscience and call on President Barack Obama to act now.
