American Horror Story

The world is on fire and my opinion doesn't matter right now. This isn't time for that. As a white person in America, this is the time for me to be silent and listen to those that are hurting. This is not a time to critique protesting or to offer alternative ways to seek justice and reform. This is not the time to assume I understand what it's like to live within systems of racism where I fear for my life and fear the police. This is time for me to listen. When I listen, I can mourn, weep, and grieve with my brothers and sisters. When I listen, I am reminded that the drumbeats of hate, ignorance, and bigotry still beat loudly. When I listen, I am able to realize that there are not enough seats at the table and some of us need to step back to make room for others to speak, lead, create, and dream. Change begins with listening. I am listening. Come along for the ride as we skewer through life, culture, and spirituality in the face of a changing world. www.Snarkyfaith.com
