Good stuff 👇
Trying to pull together some thoughts that have been rattling around in my head. In particular, trying to highlight the crucial formative role that a genuinely upside-down, power-inverting, margin-centering community (i.e. the church) has for our vision of the gospel. Thoughts?

I was at Tiananmen Square that night and I saw the PLA's massacre of Chinese civilians; they fired at the crowd I was in. Yes, there were students at the center of the square who were allowed to leave--that's what I reported and is cited misleadingly--but the massacre was real.
@NickKristof This thread says you were at Tiananmen Square. Were you there? Tomorrow is the Anniversary. Tell us what happened.

Just experienced a racist conversation when a fellow Christian questioned my leadership, and my Christian and American identity in one fell swoop. This is the third racist occurrence this week. I’m not well; trauma-filled memories. I’m tired. #DeathByAThousandCuts

Delightful!
South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol grabbed a mic and sang the Don Mclean classic “American Pie” to an astonished audience at the White House state dinner. “I had no damn idea you could sing,” Biden told his counterpart. https://t.co/MIYlQuZvwk

You can pray before meals and still be a jerk to the waitstaff. You can read your Bible each morning and then go to work and exploit people. You can preach on the street while completely ignoring unhoused people. Our practices are pointless if our posture isn’t Christlike.

The question shouldn’t be: How many people of color come to your church? The question must be: Even if people of color never come to your church, will you still stand with them and fight for justice? - Austin Channing Brown (@austinchanning)

What is happening?!?
The Monterey Park shooter was 72-year-old Huu Can Tran. The Laguna Woods shooter was 68-year-old David Chou. The Half Moon Bay shooter was 67-year-old Zhao Chunli. Something is radicalizing our elders and leading them to procure guns to enact deadly violence.

Covid (@UCSF) Chronicles, Day 958 (I'm Still Here Edition) Today, a brief update on the numbers (TL;DR: they’re reassuringly stable); my take on new studies of the bivalent booster, Long Covid, Paxlovid, & variants; and what I’m doing Covid-wise during this relative lull. (1/25)

Covid (@UCSF) Chronicles, Day 946 It’s been a while since my last update & now seems like an opportune time. While Covid is still with us, the threat level is fairly low & the last few months offer a window into what our next few years will look like–making it a good time…(1/25)
