The church keeps feasting at the tables of power and privilege ... when Jesus is asking us to flip them.
The tables that oppress the poor
The tables that deny the outcast
The tables that discard the sick
FLIP!

The facts.
A study by @RyersonDI found that Black and racialized people are under-represented on the boards of large companies, agencies, hospitals and institutions across Canada. thestar.com/business/2020/08…

“I see no color” is not the goal.
“I see your color and I honor you. I value your input. I will be educated about your lived experiences. I will work against the racism that harms you. You are beautiful. And I will do better.”
... That’s the goal. – at Breñas, Puerto Rico

They told me to pray for repentance, but when God ask them to repent of racism, they told me
that wasn’t it.
They told me to pray for peace, but when the Spirit lead me to give up my guns, they told me that wasn’t it.

George was murdered because of systemic racism, the continued devaluing and dehumanizing of #black lives. The daily choking of black liberties
#GeorgeFloydWasMurdered
#BlackLivesMatter

When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction.
The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears, because your violence has brought this resistance.
We have the right to fight back!
Rest in Power George Floyd

Don’t just be sorry. Preach. Teach. Rebuke. Pray. Plead. Divest. Befriend. Unfriend. Draw lines. Be clear. Integrate. Be uncomfortable. Pour yourself out.
We don’t need you to be sorry. We need you to do the hard work only you can with your people, whoever they are.

It’s not a surprise to me that some folks who follow me don’t want to see this daytime host get gritty on social media.
I am ok with that.

If you’re unbothered or mildly bothered by the 1st knee, but outraged by the 2nd, then, in my father’s words, you’re “more devoted to order than to justice.” And more passionate about an anthem that supposedly symbolizes freedom than you are about a Black man’s freedom to live.

I’ve noticed that with every killing of an unarmed black person, there are white folks who decide that they want to “fight racism.”
I’m not here tryna kill your vibe, I’m happy you’re here, but it’s also time for some honesty. So let’s sit down and have a chat.
