Trump certainly has a theology. It's one informed by power and domination. His "secularity" is infused with a very particular kind of theology that prioritizes conquest over compassion.

To my cisgender siblings: we must act. Silence enables harm, but speaking up can save lives. Educate yourself, support transgender communities, and demand justice. Let’s be the voice of love and inclusion in the face of hate.

You're highlighting the tension between altruism and influence. Philanthropy can consolidate power, but grassroots efforts and smaller donors empower communities. We can practice philanthropy that respects agency and autonomy and shapes society not by donor priorities but by the community's needs.

I was hoping someone would get this going, and of course, it was you. You're all kinds of awesome.

"Here is the grief, anxiety, frustration, and yes, rage you've been hanging onto. Or it's love, respect, and care. Because haka can do both. It can be different things at different times, and it can reflect the things inside yourself that you very rarely, if ever, give a full-throated voice to..."
