    Blessed are those who treat others with care.

    Thinking of this quote the past few days.

    Hello my darlings, and now for something completely different: I am urging the President of Tanzania to oppose the eviction of the Maasai people from their ancestral lands.

    I’m amazed at how many people forget John 12:47, “I do not judge anyone who hears my words and does not keep them, for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.” Moreover, how intent Christians are at judging the world and counting everybody else’s sin. Jesus save us.

    Today we commemorate the International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. As a church that was complicit in these horrors, we are called to learn and examine the paths that will lead us towards racial healing and justice.

    Large white letters against a black background in the center of the image read, "The African Diaspora: Lasting effects and the ELCA." Around the text, squares of geometric shapes fill the rest of the image. The shapes are green, red, yellow, and black.
    Dark yellow image with black text reads, "What is the Transatlantic Slave Trade? The Transatlantic Slave Trade was a 246-year tragedy where an estimated 12 million people from Africa were stolen from their native lands, separated from their families, torn from their culture, tortured, killed, and subjected to lifetimes of captivity. During this time, the white church stayed silent and complicit. What is African Diaspora? "African Diaspora" refers to all descendants of Africa. The African Union defines African Diaspora as individuals of African origin living away from their home continent of Africa." Two hands breaking a chain are centered at the bottom of the image, and the ELCA brandmark in black is in the bottom right.
    Red background with a large yellow square in the center of the image. Above the square, black text reads "Where are we?" against the red background. The yellow box reads, "Countries with the largest African Diaspora Populations: Brazil: 55.9 million (against a dark green background), United States: 46.4 million, Haiti: 10.1 millions (against a dark green background), Dominican Republic: 9.2 million. Each statistic has an all-black graphic/shape of the country immediately above the statistic.
    Yellow image, same background and font as the second graphic, has black text reading, "The ELCA's Apology and Declaration to People of African Descent. The ELCA recognizes its historical complicity in slavery and the enduring legacy of racism globally. We recognize that our role in the Transatlantic Slave Trade isn't exclusionary to the U.S., but has global implications. Because of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, hundreds of millions of Africans have been scattered away from their home, and millions more have been tortured and killed. We must remember that when we talk about the victims of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, it's not just who we see today, but those who we don't see." The same hands breaking a chain are at the bottom, center of the image, and the ELCA brandmark in black is in the bottom right.

    Blessings for all the infinitives in your life!

    I call it dosing T, not transitioning because I’m not going from A -> B. Im non-binary in every sense of the word. I’m not invested in a linear end or telos. The suspension of the teleological is how we get to an ontology of becoming.

    When we limit our listening to those who are the angriest and the loudest we become those things. Be sure to seek the advice of those who are patient, kind and supportive too.

    Prayers abounding. Especially with all going on in states around the US

    Really disappointed in deciding not to pursue to become a RIC seminary. We are the only seminary not to be RIC. Extra prayers for classmates who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

    Those people are typically first responders who may need to leave quickly if they are on call.

    What is this obsession people have with backing into parking spaces?

    Recruit laterals.

    Spoke to Bill Scott today at the Board - we have a crisis in policing - we are short 500+ officers and it would take maybe 5 years to hire these numbers - last class just graduated 13 officers!

    When the world feels upside down hold on to the love that orients you. Be kinder to others than they deserve. And seek others who notice that you are trying. Love you all. Hang in there.

    Today we had a die in at San Francisco city hall to remind people that HIV/AIDS not only continues to exist but that care and prevention of HIV/AIDS has been dramatically impacted by the COVID pandemic. Silence still = death

    Blessed are those who wrestle the impossible each morning.

    In four minutes I will begin The Hour of Struggle in which I will try and get two sleepy kids to the bus stop.
