Hey @matthew_west This song is in no way OK. It’s not funny. It is not your daughters fault how any male chooses to see them. This adds to the rape culture and leaps shame And guilt on women. https://t.co/ZgNdvbXtbA
I’ve said for a few years that we are heading towards a civil war...we probably there, like straight up Civil War. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy.
I am trying with all that I am to lean into my African-American brothers and sisters and hear their voices. Not just to hear, but to share. Not just to share, but to lend my voice in affirmation. Not just to lend my voice, but to perhaps help them be heard...
So when I speak, I am speaking to my white brothers & sisters, I am speaking to the Church, I am speaking to MYSELF... we need to listen & we need to leverage our privilege in ways that lift up the oppressed, that give voice to the oppressed, that bring freedom and manifest love.
