Family I have a big sister who needs assistants she’s looking for a progressive-leaning church in Atlanta. One that purposefully and intentionally uses inclusive language, especially when referring to the Divine. A focus on social justice is preferred. Doesn’t matter about denomination, except they must ordain women, even if the particular church you suggest is led by a male pastor. Inbox me or leave your comments below. Thanks in advance!

Moses went to Pharaoh and declared, “SLAVE LIVES MATTER.

Moses went to Pharaoh and declared, “SLAVE LIVES MATTER. God said, Let my people go!” Pharaoh hastily responded, “All lives matter.

Shut up.” Jesus walked about the Roman occupied territory of Palestine and taught, “LEPERS’ LIVES MATTER. BLIND PEOPLES’ LIVES MATTER. THE LIVES OF THE HUNGRY, THE THIRSTY, THE NAKED, THE SICK, AND THE IMPRISONED MATTER.”

#JohnCrawford was just a consumer in Walmart.

#JohnCrawford was just a consumer in Walmart. #TamirRice just wanted to play “Cops & Robbers” in the park. #PhilandoCastille was just reaching for requested identification. #EricGarner and #AltonSterling were just doing what they had to do to feed their families without breaking any laws. #SandraBland just wanted to get her bogus ticket and go on about her new journey. #TerrenceCrutcher just needed roadside assistance.

Any lawmaker who offers “#thoughtsandprayers” and still votes against gun control, takes money from @nra, cries 2nd amendment is a hypocrite “Thoughts & Prayers”-code for “Aw, that’s too bad, but since it didn’t affect me personally, I’ll keep on doing what the NRA wants me to.” Not to mention some of those #thoughtsandprayers people will be voting to legalize gun silencers in the coming days. We need #ActionNotPrayers
