Going to coin a (potentially) new term on Twitter. This might take a few tweets so bear with me. #BlackTwitter will get this pretty quickly so bear with me while I explain.

1981 Lee Atwater interview basically outline the definition of dogwhistle politics.
1/ Let me share the specifics of what I want to focus on:
"You start out in 1954 by saying, “Nigger, nigger, nigger.” By 1968 you can’t say “nigger”—that hurts you. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract.

@websterbarnaby might have good intentions but this is just a pipedream-especially in Florida.

Ok. This has been in my mind a LOT lately.
These so-called "pastors" and "religious leaders " bear their fair share of responsibility for the mess we're in. The amount of cognitive dissonance displayed in these folks is only comparable to a religious belief.
1/" "Christian" is nothing more than a label to identify with a particular tribe.
What did Christ (whom these people claim to follow the teachings of) try to teach in the Beatitudes?
Let's start off with one the just baffles me...

Ok..dammit I've had it.

Tired of folk in front but not leading...so I'll give it go, at least I've done it before.

Listen up.....THREAD

1/ I want to give you (whomever is reading) a *gameplan* to help us try to slow down the spread of COVID19. I know "wash your hands" is the general guidance, but I don't think it's specific enough, so I'm giving you a strategy to implement.
