A very dear friend passed today. She was bright, extremely witty, strong, thoughtful, and so incredibly talented as a graphic artist. How lucky for those who had the privilege of knowing her. The world was a much better place because of her. Rest well, sweet Ory. You will be missed. 💗

In 1963 NASW took a public stand for civil rights, naming racial justice a core duty of the profession. 62 years later voter roll purges, ID laws, & gerrymanders still block people from the polls. History says progress dies when we sit quiet. Lesson: defending the vote is social work, too.

Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago.
Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away”

Our "parts" are often desperate to communicate w/ us-- but they've been convinced we won't take them seriously or treat them kindly, because we've been conditioned to hate & fear them.
We need to prove to our "parts" they can trust us to listen & not overreact to what they hold.
