This essay is SO worth a read. Whiteness cannot save us. “Whiteness cannot give us what we need, and this is not a disappointment. This is a testimony.”
The biblical/church imagery in this essay about George Floyd, Parenthood, Church, career just took my breath away.

OTF,
Well done…great piece.
OTF,
Thanks for sharing. Beautifully written. It must be scary to have a small son with blood sugar issues. I hope the doctors are able to figure it out. I know African Americans have a significantly higher rate of diabetes than others.
We no longer live in the nation we were born in. Our nation is shrinking the right of free speech. It is shrinking the right of free religion. It is shrinking the right of free assembly.
It is shrinking fast.
I need a new zone.
