*starts preaching against racism as sinful*

“Whoa whoa whoa! Stick to the gospel, bucko!”

Eventually, we gotta stop tryna drag stubborn mules to the promised land and walk without em. They either gon catch up, or they not. 1/4

If you call out individuals for participating (either actively or passively) in oppression, you are being “divisive”.

If you call out the systems that perpetuate injustice and oppression you are a Marxist. 2/4

If you have the audacity to see that Jesus spent as much time talking about the way religion and tradition were used to oppress as he did individual sins and transgressions, you’ll be called everything but a child of God.

Do it anyway.

Cuz the same thing happened to Jesus. 3/4

If the decision is between your faith community/tradition and between siding with those on the margins of society, choose the disenfranchised & disinherited.

Every time.

Because you shouldn’t have to choose.

And Jesus sho nuff had words for those who made the wrong choice. 4/4
