All the things I've personally experienced as a white person trying to join the fight...in one thread. Retweeting as a resource for myself and you, if you're interested.

I’m not here tryna kill your vibe, I’m happy you’re here, but it’s also time for some honesty. So let’s sit down and have a chat.
“The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other’s light.”

My partner and I were fostering a baby that had just turned a year old. I was the worship leader at a small church in VA.
Several in the congregation wanted a sunrise service.
