Oppenheimer: Towering, powerful moments; intimate, visceral inscapes. Every performance is sublime. Still, the heartbeat of this story is elusive. Strauss is over-present, too many hearings and statements. A hyperfocus on legacy gravitates toward career instead of soul.

Barbie: Ambitious. Playful. Insightful. Poignant. Fantastic. Not many films are all of these—Barbie is. Believe the hype; Gerwig pulls it off. You’ll laugh your way right into a substantive course on gender equity.

Dear @BarackObama The USA was NOT built on peaceful protest. It was founded w/ a dehumanizing Doctrine of Discovery, ethnically cleansed of Indigenous people & built on the backs of millions of enslaved African people. Please stop telling White people this is their Promised Land.

Today is the anniversary of the murder of Oscar Romero in El Salvador. On March 24, 1980, he was killed as he served communion. Although he began as a conservative archbishop, opposed to the progressive liberation theology that was popular among those seeking to help poor…

“The question for many of us is whether to stay or go, and it's always complicated. Do we stay, hoping to change abusive institutions from within, sometimes giving decades of our lives? Or do we go, forging a new path, hoping to God it exists out there and is waiting for us?"

Egghead & Twinkie: Imaginative and expansive, so many pieces work in surprising harmony from illustrations to music to makeup to a dorky sun costume. All built on a gem of a story and great performances that paint identity and pilgrimage and allyship in vibrant colors. 🏳️‍🌈

Dr. Jordan B Peterson (@jordanbpeterson) may not have a clue who Creator is, but he absolutely understands what Western Christianity and the American church teaches.

Since @TuckerCarlson called me a “breastfeeding Christian” last night on his show, a good reminder for me to add this to my devotional time this morning:

Framing Agnes: Wow. This film honors, interrogates, and reanimates so many profound stories of trans people in the 1960s. It models multi-layered engagement with the past and the present, all while allowing it’s filmmakers and artists to create as their full selves. Just wow.

On Jan. 17, 1893, 130 years ago, the Native government of the Kingdom of Hawaii was overthrown by European and American settler colonialists. How did it happen, and how did this lead to the US annexation of Hawaii? A thread. 🧵 1/

This was never a real solution. Want to keep teachers? Quit treating them like dirt. Quit casually slanderously and nuttily suggesting that more or most are pedophiles. Pay them a decent wage. Show the respect - not gimmicks. military.com/daily-news/202…

The Worst Person in the World: A hard film to sum up, but a very complete experience. Curious, layered, trippy, expansive – it dances into the ineffable in its best moments and honors life in all its complexity.

Georgia is a mirror to the country. We are deeply divided… and Black folks are America’s moral conscience. White folks, we have work to do.

#NeverForget that on Nov. 29, 1864, in accordance w/ the genocidal policies of Abraham Lincoln, who was intent on ethnically cleansing the Central, Northern & Southern routes of the transcontinental railway, the massacre of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe people occurred at Sand Creek.
