FACTS: "Covington Catholic Kids vs. Native Elder Nathan Phillups"

“Being in a minority, even in a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.”

― George Orwell, 1984

There is a lesson for America and the church in this. In the end, I'm struck by how easy it was for so many sensible white pp to question their own judgement when white authorities disagreed--even though POC were clear about what they saw. 

 Follow @lisasharper if you want a breakdown was what really happened in the longer video of the Catholic school boys and Nathan Phillips. *Weirdly* none of what she chronicles (and i watched) is in any of allegedly exhaustive write ups by conservatives. -- Kirsten Powers

I've been watching videos all day. I have one thing to say (in a bunch of tweets, so hold on): The videos BACK UP/STRENGTHEN Mr. Nathan Phillips' account of what happened toward the conclusion of the #IndigenousPeoplesMarch on Saturday. They also reveal how it all happened. 1/
