“Queen Sugar” Does Black Lives Matter Storytelling Right

How to Love Your Neighbor and Love Yourself by Reading the Bible for Pride

I can’t make every passage better. There are some passages that are still, even after months of study, hard to accept. But I try to remind myself that it’s okay to be critical of what’s written and that questions can help my faith grow.

Orange Is the New Black Episode 513 Review: Poussey Washington Was More Than a Martyr

“Thirteen hours of television later, and season five’s cliffhanger ends nearly exactly as season four: with women, many of whom are queer, many of whom are of color, in peril and facing an unknown future. Instead of grounding this season in a fight for social justice, they gleefully reveled in unnecessary violence and humiliation.”
