@macebond @reusabletoilet @talliesinyoung The many students who can’t avail themselves of the career networks, job opportunities, support system, social calendar, and other resources/structures would disagree. Greek life is a cult and some aren’t welcome. “That’s life” ...or we could CARE about each other?
@macebond @reusabletoilet @talliesinyoung Why are you ok with excluding people on the basis of class/race? 🤔 Why would you even be comfortable knowing that?? Participating? “They can start their own group” — yeah without funding and limitless connections? Obviously not the same 🤦🏽♀️
I’ve lived near the Yusef Hawkins mural in bedstuy for a while. I can’t believe I’ve been looking at his face for so long and never knew his story. Please check out Yusef Hawkins: storm over Brooklyn. Such a tragic yet familiar story.
“I only have a minute.
Sixty seconds in it.
Forced upon me, I did not choose it,
But I know that I must use it.
Give account if I abuse it.
Suffer, if I lose it.
Only a tiny little minute,
But eternity is in it.”
- Dr. Benjamin E. Mays
(and recited by Elijah Cummings) 💜
@cov_Gretchen Who made you the gender police? Why can’t you just accept people? What makes you feel comfortable denying someone’s truth? Jesus walked with the poor and the marginalized and was persecuted by those in power. You’re on the opposite side. How do you reconcile this? @cov_Gretchen
