Seeking racial justice with @mvpumc feels like the most life-giving work I'm doing right now. Thanks @usnews & @MilliganSusan for this story. #ACT2EndRacism #MLK50Forward https://t.co/NdjJ33w4EK

@dog_rates This looks like I put my girl Cricket in the dryer and she shrank.

@shawnda_hines I perhaps should have nuanced that a bit more....(eeks!)

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

I interviewed @DrIbram & wrote about his book "How to Be an Antiracist." Spoiler alert: Being racist isn't a "permanent tattoo," a stain on one's character for eternity. It's all about the choices we make at any given time. Read on. https://t.co/xJSLAvJRLE via @sojourners

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

@oungruhe Ha! Yes, it does. I'm a 4. Surprise surprise. :)

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Sickening. This is why we need an #AntiracistBookFest where @JonathanMetzl spoke earlier. Thank you @DrIbram for making it happen & offering hope & solidarity. I’ll take those over the fear of these men any day.

[Catherine Wigginton @cewigginton]

So this bullshit just went down today at Politics & Prose. White nationalists disrupting @JonathanMetzl talk on his book Dying of Whiteness. Point made. @PM_Learn

“I don’t want you visiting in my life. I don’t want my white readers to be unscathed.” @tressiemcphd She and @MorganJerkins slayed at #AntiracistBookFest

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

So much goodness at #AntiracistBookFest hosted by @DrIbram Wish I could replicate myself and attend every single session.

As a writer, a reader, and someone who appreciates facts and accurate info, I love #libraries and everything they do. #AprilFactsDay

[American Library Association @ALALibrary]

Possibly the most important fact about #libraries: They can help you find accurate answers and fact-check dubious claims. #AprilFactsDay #LibrariesTransform

@dianabutlerbass This banner was hung outside @mvpumc in DC a month before General Conference.

This is from my Methodist church in Cape Town. Note the rainbow colors. We’re cracked right now, but maybe now the Light will get in. #UMC #GC2019 🏳️‍🌈

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Oh #UnitedMethodist I’m new to your church and didn’t expect you to break my heart so soon. Jesus loves and embraces. So must we. #GC2019 #umc #onechurchplan

[Adam Hamilton @RevAdamHamilton]

#GC2019 votes down the One Church Plan. Deeply disappointed but not surprised after the previous votes. Tomorrow will focus on the Modified Traditional Plan, debating and discussing and determining the constitutionality of this.

Every day, she's the silliest of the sillies, and a very good girl. #NationalLoveYourPetDay

@oungruhe Yasss! I can’t wait to hear more. ❤️

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Winky knows it's about the journey, not the destination. Also, she thought the border collies were just a little too crazy eyed. #WKCDogShow

[The Westminster Kennel Club @WKCDOGS]

One of our favorite moments from yesterday's Masters Agility Championship Preliminaries, Winky the Bichon Frise! #WKCDogShow

Call racism what it is.

I LOVE @staceyabrams -- just the cleanse America needs after 82 minutes of BS. #SOTU

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Zackly. #SOTU

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Man, @SpeakerPelosi is heavily channeling McKayla Maroney tonight. Totally understandable. #SOTU19

[Kimberly Burge @Kimberly_Burge]

Fellow white people, let’s use Black History Month to begin to educate ourselves. Start with: blackface was NEVER okay. Not in 1830 when the character was named Jim Crow. Not at med school in 1984. Never. #NorthamShouldResign
