Thanks!

lol this picture is BEYOND flattering 🫩

I believe the only way to change anything is to defeat her/them at the polls, unfortunately

Probably as you’d guess: stuck to talking points

Today I was able to share my concerns about this Big “Beautiful” Bill with Senator Blackburn’s staff.

This legislation would negatively affect the 1.4 million Tennesseans that depend on Medicaid and the 700k Tennesseans that depend on SNAP

“Hope will never be silent!” - Harvey Milk

“Get offline and out of the comments and get to an organizing meeting!” - Senator Charlane Oliver

“I have been cast aside, but I sparkle in the darkness.
I have been slain but live on in the rivers of history.
I seek no conquest, no wealth, no power, no revenge;
I seek only discovery
Of the illimitable heights and depths of my own being.” - Pauli Murray

The fight continues, friends.

Legislative session ended yesterday. In many ways it was nastier than it’s ever been, and yet I saw the community show up in ways I hadn’t before. In many ways I wonder how humanity can be so hateful, and yet I see God in the faces of those showing up to fight for justice.

Happy to share I’ve been accepted into the PhD in Public Administration and Policy program at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA! Here are some photos from my recent campus visit.

Tons of protesters at the TN Capitol today to speak out against SB836 that would allow PUBLIC SCHOOLS to deny enrollment to undocumented CHILDREN.

I'm a minister in Tennessee. We must protect trans rights. | Opinion I am going to insist that you protect the rights of transgender and non-binary people for a much simpler reason: they are Tennesseans.

Wrote an op-ed in the Tennessean about how simple it should be to protect the rights of trans folks…

Rev. Wesley King: “We live in a time of deep polarization where many would have you believe that trans folks are the enemy, but they are not. They are your neighbors, your constituents, your people. They are Tennesseans.” www.tennessean.com/story/opinio...

In days of hurt + loss + fear, come join me & Rev.s Aaron X Marble, Cherisna Jean-Marie, @itswesleyking.bsky.social, & Ingrid McIntyre, in a revival of justice—justice that contains healing; renews hope; & helps put our hands on that moral arc & bend it towards the flourishing lives we all deserve!

SO WE’RE JUST BROADCASTING SIGNALING NAZI’S NOW, HUH?!

Opening day of the 114th General Assembly of the State of Tennessee!

They vowed to not propose or or assent to anything that seems “injurious to the people, or consent to any act or thing, whatever, that
shall have a tendency to lessen or abridge their rights and privileges”

Let’s hold them to it!

Always a good morning here ❤️

Thank you, dear friend!

Y’all don’t draft denominational resolutions denouncing Project 2025 on Monday nights? 🤔

. @nashvilleinharmony.bsky.social made it’s Parthenon debut last night!

Thanks for having me, Ch. 2!

She is an opportunist. She sees an opportunity to create fake panic and gain favor with her party.

“[Trump] should be held ‘accountable’ for his actions. However, [Mace] ultimately voted against impeaching him, and in 2024, endorsed him in the Republican presidential primary.”

Disgusting.

This was before I got 🤮 because I had too much coffee and water before the workout…

On today, Trans Day of Remembrance, I feel the need to publicly say that trans people are beloved, they belong, and they matter. Their lives matter. Their rights matter. This is non-negotiable.

Back at it after 2 weeks off (I blame Trump)
