So @DavidDark examined a public call I posted to @MarshaBlackburn to do better by my kids, 1 of whom attends a school she started. I know she has it in her. She even let me use her office once to host a mtg about the harm sheltered workshops cause disabled ppl.
Let’s do better.
Let’s do better.

I owe a lot to the good @MarshaBlackburn has done. The school she helped start was my 1st FT teaching gig. The Angels in Adoption honor inspired me to work supporting adoptee voices/rights. B/c of her 90s support of Kurds, I worked in a co-ed indigenous-led Iraqi school 1 summer.
That’s why I owe it to @MarshaBlackburn as a fellow Image-bearer to speak as directly as I can to the good I know she has done & can do. I owe it to her to expect better, b/c her advocacy during Pres Obama’s audit of adoptive families kept us from losing our home.
No party has a monopoly on righteousness. They’re constructs of humankind, organizational systems subject to the whims of power & fortune. It’s up to us, speaking truth in congregation & one at a time, to command moral seriousness of every last person so bold as to represent us.
