Time and time again yesterday, I heard white men asking on repeat if they could be heard. White. Men. Times are changing. Not only in our church, but in our society as a whole. Maybe it is the time that you take a step back. That you let other voices be heard. Voices of color 1/?

, voices of youth, voices of women. These cries for justice will not go unheard. They may not come today, they may not come tomorrow, but they are coming. I find it utterly shameful that an opposition of being tired was leveled when deciding the principles of inclusion and 2/?

acceptance for the black women and girls into our church. I can assure you, that as tired as some may have been, these sisters are far more tired of being put down and shut up by many of the members of our denomination and country. We should have give our support to those who 3/?

have been put down by our church in the past and in our present, and that includes the black women and girls of our community. We are living in a modern world, and it is time for us to face the future as a united community of faith. 4/4 #GA224 #TrustBlackWomen
