@netrootsnation.bsky.social our team is at #NN25
Faith narratives have been co-opted by those who seek to do us harm. Come “faith around and find out” ©️the power of prophetic faith traditions and faith tenets can help us combat authoritarianism. #Faithinaction #Pastorinthepublicsquare

I haven’t been on in a minute please pray for St. Louis. The devastation is unreal. These are two of three congregations that friends lead that have sustained significant damage. I arrived a couple of hours before the tornado. Thankfully my family is safe but many aren’t.

Crockett: I cannot wait until voters have an opportunity to say: You took food out of my mouth. You took a roof from over my head. You are responsible for making sure that I do not have health care. I'm going to make sure you don't have a job.

Tonight my heart bleeds for the family of #Tyrenichols and Memphis murder with impunity causes people to relive the nightmare over and over again. “The whole damn system is guilty as Hell!”

As we await the next act of terror from the Empire be reminded of Acts 5:29 “But Peter and the apostles answered, "We must obey God rather than any human authority.” Don’t cower, capitulate or be complicit.

On this day in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson told Gov. Wallace he would federalize the National Guard to protect Selma marchers. Alabama refused to defend justice, so the White House stepped in. A defining moment where federal power was used to uphold civil rights. #Selma

Today I remember Harriet Tubman. She escaped this earthly plane on this date in 1913. Yet her wisdom and courage is still reverberating around the globe. It is that wisdom that we need to conjure up now. I am in solidarity with many people today I chose to stand for myself and Black women and rest.

@cnn.com @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social decorum will not get you re-elected! People need to know that you can fight and nothing demonstrated that. When Rep Green got ejected you all should have walked. You listened while he hurled racist, xenophobic, homophobic insults. We need you to “Squabble up!”

The way we need to focus on Black Media and pool our dollars to build a viable Black news network to scale. This is where celebs and denominations could help. Not surprised by @msnbc.com at all. It’s not the first time. Praying for @joyannreid.bsky.social knowing it isn’t the end for her.

242 years ago today Rev. Jarena Lee was born. She was the first woman to licensed to preach in the A.M.E. church by Bishop Allen in 1819. Richard Allen refused to ordain her but she kept preaching. She was ordained posthumously in 2016, thanks to the leadership of Dr. Teresa Fry Brown!

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency
“On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST).

For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming.

Thank you for your service”

2 long days of strategizing with organizers; on the 🚊 wiped out but headed home after missing 1; Wednesday we’ll talk about ethnic cleansing in Gaza & the risk of a new enslavement trade as El Salvador wants to buy the incarcerated. On the 🎂 of Rosa Parks be reminded that organizing works.

Bishop Henry McNeal Turner, was born 2/1/1834. He was the 12th elected and consecrated Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and a State Rep in Georgia. He was the first AME Bishop to ordain a woman, Sarah Ann Copeland Hughes in 1885. He was indeed ahead of his time. He spoke these words as a part of a speech he gave after white colleagues decided to expel Black electeds.  #FreedomFebruary

Today is the State funeral of President Carter. He was one of a kind and embodied his faith. It is a stark contrast of how faith is now weaponized in the political arena. I am grateful for his life and these memories. Well done good and faithful servant.

Don’t only “watch, fight and pray” but if I can add to it in 2025 be prepared to Move or ACT Watch: Be aware of what is in your surroundings that makes you uneasy and for opportunities. Fight: To keep your peace and freedom. Pray: For discernment and in all things. Move/ACT: Unapologetically!!
