I took a self defense class once and one thing the instructor said has stuck with me for 30 years. Expect pain. You WILL get hurt. And if you accept that, you can fight. But pain shocks most people into NOT fighting-they think if they stop, the pain will stop. It won’t. Expect pain, fight back.

I understand the allure of wanting to be a "carry guns and wear leather jackets" Black Panther but there's a case to be made that the most dangerous ones were the "feed kids breakfast and teach them about settler colonialism" Black Panthers
I hope we Americans can let go of our desire to be the individual Chosen One who leads the rebellion and punches every Nazi. Organizing is hard, it takes experience and resources and time. Stop fantasizing about being a superhero. Start joining existing groups and be part of collective action.

Nurture the tender parts of yourself, the parts that feel other people's pain, the parts that understand that an injury to anyone also hurts you, and that all of our fates are connected. Evading your grief will only compound your angst and isolation, or even increase your tolerance for injustice.
