But he also is about careerism and overshadows the very voices of color he should be lifting up. He stand on the shoulders of people of color and isn't great about deferring to them. In fact, when he is critiqued he has responded abusively. Not good.BTSFbloghttp://bytheirstrangefruit.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-55024394831424847462014-12-17T12:29:05.805-05:002014-12-17T12:29:05.805-05:00right!right!BTSFbloghttp://bytheirstrangefruit.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-6256272383910529542014-12-17T12:28:51.429-05:002014-12-17T12:28:51.429-05:00Yes, for me how a given church has reacted and led...Yes, for me how a given church has reacted and led in these last months has been a big indicator of their character.

As of now i am unchurched but i can't decide where i want to worship. There is a church in my community where the pastor is very pro active and last week they participated in the protest marches here in my city. I hold prayer vigils i would like to participate in those, They are not unlawful they are peaceful i could do those.Mary Burrellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-53658207421112511782014-12-16T20:00:56.904-05:002014-12-16T20:00:56.904-05:00Human compassion is important, because real libert...Human compassion is important, because real liberty can never be accomplished without sacrifice, compassion, and standing up for justice.truthseeker2436577@yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1475128319218423248.post-83544897739829241412014-12-16T17:42:49.092-05:002014-12-16T17:42:49.092-05:00Thank you, Mary.
