    It just happened again. Christ The King Middle School in Gretna, Louisiana expelled this beautiful young Black girl saying that her hair style was "unnatural." She was humiliated and removed from the school over it. Let's be clear - this is Christianity as White Supremacy. pic.twitter.com/22IIKD9UCk

        Intolerance is a hallmark of fake Christians. 💯

        Line is busy, I will keep calling. It saddens me that they are misrepresenting Christians.

        Thank you. Is there a consistent message we're going to send? I have some ideas but consistency may be more impactful

        I expect better research from a writer for @theintercept Maybe check the school's policies before getting baited by phony outrage.

        “Christianity as white supremacy.” American evangelicals like the Russian Orthodox Church. Trump left early from his Moscow beauty pageant to be at Billy Graham’s 96th birthday party. It’s why the Alt-Right Nazis chant “We love Russia.” GOP, the Christian white supremacist party.

        Tried phone and website and couldn’t get thru. If my child went to this school I would be there right now pulling them out. No way would I tolerate this abuse.

        The nerve of a Metro New Orleans school to act like that. With all of the diversity New Orleans has. Damn disgrace from that school.

        This poor kid will remember this horrible experience for life. I hope we can offset any lasting trauma by showing our support for her beautiful hair and extensions. The school should be ashamed and apologize for this blatantly racist and discriminatory policy.
