White privilege is violently storming the US Capitol and just...being sent home.

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

No more silence. It's time to embrace equity, work for justice, fight for love, speak truth to power. For our BIPOC siblings. For our LGBTQIA+ siblings. For all people.

May it be so

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

The capitol has been breached by terrorists. Not protestors...terrorists.

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

This is the result of years of unchecked white supremacy. Years of complacency and complicity, of which I am part. This is what happens when we deal in alternative facts and conspiracy theories, when we embrace hate and division and fear.

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

@shondarhimes Yes. And that he loves them. I want to vomit.

[Nadia Bolz-Weber @Sarcasticluther]

Completely fucking horrified at the armed insurrection at the US Capitol that the president of the United States and his "Law and Order" supporters have created. This is Trump's legacy.

[JT English @jt_english]

The Confederate Flag has breached the Capital, something it failed to do even in the Civil War. This isn't a protest, this is a coup, an attack on the state, and an attack on the very heart of democracy. I have never seen anything so un-American.

[Alicia T. Crosby (she/her) @aliciatcrosby]

If it's possible to sit in disbelief but be wholly unsurprised, that's what I am right now.

The floors of the Capital would be flooded with blood if these seditious people were anything other than white.

Show up unapologetically as your fullest and most authentic self, being hope to the world. @JoeDavisPoetry #ELCAYG2018

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

You may have been told to sit down and shut up, but I am telling you to stand up and speak out! @JoeDavisPoetry #ELCAYG2018

[Jen Hartweg-Brown @jen2081]

My existence is resistance. I am here for a reason and a purpose. @JoeDavisPoetry #ELCAYG2018

Just listened to Jaime Bruesehoff and Rebekah Bruesehoff speak. Amazing, powerful, hopeful. @hippypastorwife #ELCAYG2018

God doesn't love your ideal self. God loves your actual self. You are magnificently imperfect. @Sarcasticluther #ELCAYG2018

@Sarcasticluther Your current reality is not your ultimate reality. #gracechangeseverything #ELCAYG2018
