As much as “Popular” was on mainstream radio during the first Wicked, I need y’all to finally put Cynthia Erivo on the radio for “No Good Deed Goes Unpunished” in honor of this second Wicked.

Grace is not to pretend as if someone is not doing something wrong.

Grace is recognizing that any of us can make mistakes and even cause harm.

Accountability is not punishment or harassment.

Accountability is a way to fortify relationships and access deeper levels of our humanity.

Amidst all of Hank Hill’s complexities, the one thing I love about him is that he knows how to physically fight.
