A friendly reminder that Kanye West’s linking of his bipolar disorder to his antisemitism is dangerous on all kinds of levels… Not the least of which to all kinds of folk with bipolar disorder, including me, who live reasonable lives free from antisemitic outbursts.

Through it all, whether it was ‘cosplaying’ a pastor in a Montreat storefront in 2005 or processing down the cathedral aisle to preach in Paris, I have found God in what I am lucky enough to do.

Dr. and Mrs. King's daughter, Bernice has been a cherished friend. She wrote the foreword to one of my books. I've learned from her how important it is to connect King's words to today. It's more than just a day, it's a legacy to live out and enact.
