This week on the Let's Give A Damn podcast, my friend Joél Leon. joined me for a conversation about his brilliant new book (out June 4!), the genocide in Gaza, who he's *not* voting, how much we need community right now, and so much more. Tune in. LFG! ✊🏾 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/let…

Today and every day and every month, Happy Pride! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️✊🏽

Congress: “From the River to the Sea” is genocidal! Also Congress: “Finish Them” is alright with us! Fuck this unexceptional country and #FreePalestine! ✊🏽🇵🇸❤️🍉

Since yesterday, I’ve seen a bunch of y’all *still* referring to our LGBTQ+ siblings as “brothers and sisters.” WHY? That language clearly excludes our gender non-conforming, non-binary, and gender fluid siblings. With as much love as I can muster, DO BETTER. 😘 #HappyPride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

If you’ve lost a father, are estranged from your father, have never known your father, were abused by your father, have lost a child, can’t have children, are raising children alone—if this day is hard for you, I see you, love you, and am thinking about you. #FathersDay

When Sonya opened the door, she said "Please don't hurt me." Minutes later, "I'll fucking shoot you right in your fucking face" were the last words she heard before Sean Grayson murdered her. She did nothing wrong. They murdered her anyway. #ACAB #SayHerName #SonyaMassey

Happy 100th birthday to James Arthur Baldwin! ❤️✊🏽 “There may not be as much humanity in the world as one would like to see, but there is some. Love has never been a popular movement. The world is held together by the love and the passion of a very few people…”

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow: Fuck the occupiers. Free the occupied. In Palestine. In Lebanon. In Sudan. In Congo. In Haiti. In every place. (background courtesy of the restroom at WeWork) #FreePalestine #EndTheOccupation #LetsGiveADamn

The Right Revered Mariann Edgar Budde spoke boldly and directly to President Donald J. Trump at today’s Service of Prayer for the Nation at Washington National Cathedral. Watch Trump, a convicted felon, become so fucking annoyed. Watch Trump and Vance roll their eyes and squirm by the little snakes they are.

A Palestinian flag onstage during the @KendrickLamar halftime show at the #SuperBowl! Obviously, they were chased down and tackled by security. Highlight of the game! #SBLIX  #FreePalestine

You fired 335 bullets at Hind Rajab’s five-year-old body, you fucking liars. Your snipers have shot thousands of Palestinian children in their heads, you fucking liars. You’ve slaughtered hundreds of thousands of completely innocent Palestinians, you fucking liars.

I’m seeing a fuck ton of “there is no place for political violence” posts from the same people that haven’t said shit about the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians that have been slaughtered by Israel over the past two years in Gaza. And I’m just here to say that’s fucked up.

What a weak and evil response. How can you be heartbroken over what’s happening in the Twin Cities when you hired one of the terrorists causing the chaos to be one of your pastors, Jonathan Parnell? You’re a disgrace to the gospel of Jesus.
