Congrats to Em Davis and Nicholas Solorzano!
We were so honored to celebrate your big day at Kessler Park United Methodist Church!
Iβve been arrested at the White House, defending immigrants.
Risked losing my career UM clergy career doing same sex weddings.
Defended reproductive rights.
Stood in solidarity with BLM.
Spoken against racism, fascism.
Nobody can jump into every cause.
But I'm praying for where I'll be led.
This @muzach.bsky.social post might strike some of you as an offensive appropriation.
But...
MAGA-GOP really is saying βmy choiceβ to the autonomy of actual women.
But they also say βmy choiceβ to βthe Body of Christ.β
The two are, horrifically, interconnected.

So great to meet your families.
