Posted on

The Year 2020 will be one for the record books for everyone. It will be one of those “mile markers” where you see other years or life events in terms of how it compares to 2020. “Well at least it’s not 2020,” or “I haven’t seen anything like this since 2020.” For Persecution Project, this…
