MHarrisPerry I will be talking with Rev Moss @om3 of @TrinityChicago and Univ of Chicago theologian Prof Dwight Hopkins. #Nerdland

MHarrisPerry Tune into @MHPShow at 10AM ET. We're talking about the return of Rev Jeremiah Wright, VAWA and the economy. #Nerdland

MHarrisPerry On a more serious note I'm joining @ezraklein on #Maddow tonight to discuss Romney's recycled campaign strategies.

MHarrisPerry So @elonjames I'm going to need you to wear your top hat from your wedding on @MHPShow tomorrow. #metrosexualblackabelincoln

MHarrisPerry I like that question @Rokslyde Worth asking on both sides: How has life gotten better or worse for you as a direct result of Obama policy?

MHarrisPerry Ha! @WideAsleepNima You get 100 points for using hagiography in a tweet! I'm so thrilled I'm not even mad you were criticizing me.

MHarrisPerry As both a researcher of African American religion & a black churchgoer, I'd like to talk at length about our complexity @bretech2

MHarrisPerry Fair question @bretech2 I find it relevant because many are attempting to use "black church" as weapon against POTUS these past few weeks.

MHarrisPerry Be certain that @MHPShow will honor Donna Summer by playing her music this weekend. Rest in peace Queen of Disco. http://t.co/recK3yox

MHarrisPerry And even in 2008 I had my critiques of Wright. Here is my other piece, "Wright Prophet, Wrong Direction." http://t.co/XnA2Kntd #nerdland

MHarrisPerry While waiting for @MHPShow Saturday here's a piece I wrote on Rev Wright back in 2008. Our Jeremiah http://t.co/F8MdIrEe #nerdland

MHarrisPerry Y'all know the @MHPShow is all over the attempt to revive Rev Wright as a weapon against POTUS. #WishTodayWasSaturday

MHarrisPerry Equality is more than rhetoric for POTUS. MT @chrisgeidner : Obama Admin Issues #LGBT-Inclusive Rules to reduce assault http://t.co/WpXGTYwr

MHarrisPerry Hilarity. #NOLA's 102.9 morning DJs just did a bounce mix of pomp & circumstance. Kid & I screaming Magna Cum Laude & dancing around!
