Trump's so-called "Board of Peace" released their logo. There was a big error in it, but I went ahead and fixed it for them.

I will send a PDF to ANYONE who wants a copy of my "Embodying Justice: A Conversation About The Prophetic Vocation". Yes, I will lose money giving it away but I want people to use it.

Drop me a DM.

Just a reminder: Systemic change takes time, but individual choice can be immediate.

Consider this:

Some of the most inspiring and impactful leaders in the world today not only have never received honours and prizes for the work, but some have even refused such recognition, refusing to legitimize the powers behind those awards themselves.

Well, today is the 10 year anniversary of the most viral meme I ever created. It has been shared, copied, stolen, and "claimed" all over the internet. Very proud! πŸ˜‰

Look for reason will only leave us frustrated and confounded. There is no reasoning with the unreasonable.

I will not celebrate his death. But I will call for justice to all those who suffered at the hands of his hateful ideology.

When you take one aspect of a person’s identity and make it the explanation for their worst behaviour, but ignore that same aspect when others act violently, you are not seeking truth. You are enforcing prejudice.

Resist it in yourself and call it out in others.

Jamie Arpin-Ricci Today I learned that Dr. James Dobson had died. His death marks the passing of a man who profoundly shaped American evangelicalism. The tributes will be many, and they will frame him as a champion of....

I did not see this response coming. Thanks all!

It is already repeating itself. We waited too long. Act NOW!

Too many dismiss Alligator Alcatraz by saying, β€œIt’s not as bad as Auschwitz!” That logic excuses harm. That’s how denial becomes complicity. We must name and confront injustice before it grows beyond what people will dare to stop.

Every atrocity was once β€œnot that bad”.

Until it was.

This is historic for all the wrong reasons. I am not prone to hyperbole, but the truth is barely distinguishable from it at this point.

We’re one headline away from Trump saying that, not only are the protesters paid, but that he's responsible for the job creation.

The Boulder attack was terror, not justice. Antisemitism betrays us all. Our liberation, including Palestinian liberation, means nothing if built on someone else’s harm.

Free Palestine.

End Antisemitism.

Empathy is the act of crossing the barriers between self and the other without collapsing difference.

Never tell the oppressed, who demand liberation, that they should be grateful for less oppression.

The election has taught me this:

Ignorance and privilege are equally able to keep us from seeing what is right and good.

Woe to you, you singer of songs,
You bow to the weight of your fears.
In the king's chamber you worship,
Yet why does he cast no spears?

Mistaking a conditional advantage for a systemic privilege will only further harm the marginalized.

If we’re debating the fine print of what qualifies as genocide or a concentration camp, something has already gone terribly wrong. The fact that such a debate is even necessary means we've gone too far. #palestine

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

The Unmaking of Queer America: Silence, Supremacy, and Systemic Erasure - jamiearpinricci.medium.com/the-unmaking...

It is a future where queerness is treated as a security threat. It is a remaking of America not in the image of freedom, but of supremacy.

What we are seeing:

Normalizing authoritarianism.
Governing by ideological fiat.
Deconstruction of democracy.
Creating a "new" America.

Replacing dissent with loyalty.
Replacing complexity with singular truth.
Replacing pluralism with cultural uniformity.
Replacing accountability with impunity.
