https://t.co/sV3nZw4nQ1 Check out this Anti-Racist Toolkit! Walk yourself, grade team, or entire school on a journey from self-reflection to redefining racism, unpacking the construction of race & white privilege, to understanding CRP beyond picture books and celebrations.

The church keeps feasting at the tables of power and privilege ... when Jesus is asking us to flip them.

The tables that oppress the poor
The tables that deny the outcast
The tables that discard the sick

FLIP!

The Ford government is doing it all wrong! You can't pick and choose which medical advice to implement to ensure health and safety in schools.

The facts.

[Carlos A. Rodríguez @CarlosHappyNPO]

“I see no color” is not the goal.

“I see your color and I honor you. I value your input. I will be educated about your lived experiences. I will work against the racism that harms you. You are beautiful. And I will do better.”

... That’s the goal.

[Denise Edwards @DniceEdwards]

Say it 🗣for the ppl in the back and front pews!! Amen! 🙏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾

We need to be Christians, not just churchgoers.

[Carlos A. Rodríguez @CarlosHappyNPO]

They told me to pray for repentance, but when God ask them to repent of racism, they told me
that wasn’t it.

They told me to pray for peace, but when the Spirit lead me to give up my guns, they told me that wasn’t it.

I Am Not Ok!

[Karen Brown @KarenAMBrown]

George was murdered because of systemic racism, the continued devaluing and dehumanizing of #black lives. The daily choking of black liberties
#GeorgeFloydWasMurdered
#BlackLivesMatter

[Colin Kaepernick @Kaepernick7]

When civility leads to death, revolting is the only logical reaction.

The cries for peace will rain down, and when they do, they will land on deaf ears, because your violence has brought this resistance.

We have the right to fight back!
