Excited to be online with almost 1000 people as together we refound @GBinterfaith.
We will keep working to make sure that vaccines are equitably available and that people in the communities that have suffered the most actually take the vaccines. We need that "blanket of protection" over our community, our country, and God's world.
So grateful that Pastor Gloria and I have been asked to be Community Ambassadors for Dimock Community Health Center. We can’t ask others to do what we’re not willing to do ourselves, so yesterday we received our first doses of the Moderna Vaccine.

Thanks, Celtics players, for speaking up for justice. bostonglobe.com/2020/12/16/o…
This is the opportunity of a lifetime, and it is paramount that Governor Baker not stand in the way of racial justice when the legislature returns this bill to him for his final signature. @MassGovernor @KarenSpilka @SpeakerDeLeo Pass S.2963 now!

#STAYWOKE -sermon for 3rd Sunday in Advent (Luke 2:25-28). God's looking for people who are woke, waiting, and working. How about you? youtube.com/watch?v=0q90FeeP…
With great authority comes greater accountability.
Police are professionals who hold the lives of others in their hands and should be treated as such, just like doctors and lawyers. In Police Accountability let’s make history in Massachusetts!
@MassGovernor : Sign S.2963 today!
#mapoli #bospoli
We are not anti-police. We are pro-good-policing.
Real Police Accountability is within our grasp. @MassGovernor: Sign S.2963 now and make Massachusetts a recognized leader again!

An amazing testimony @ Annual Conf from Sharita Henderson-1 of 2 survivors of a Waffle House shooting n Apr 2018. Why did she forgive the shooter? "It takes too much energy to hate & I needed all my energy to heal." She also talked about trusting God & working for justice. Wow!
Amen
We’re marching down Blue Hill Ave and so many folks are honking or cheering in solidarity. We still have a lot of work to do, but I am tearing up because of the love and solidarity my hood is showing in support of trans lives. #BlackTransLivesMatter
Whatever roles God has called us to play, “let us not grow weary in doing what is right, for we will reap at harvest time, if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9, NRSV)”
Bishop Douglas Miles, Pastor of Koinonia Baptist Church in Baltimore, says this justice race is not only a marathon; it’s a relay. We’re a team--passing the baton from one generation to the other and passing the baton from protestors to legislators to negotiators to implementers.
