Making my workplace feel safe. The status quo is racist. If you don’t take action to dispel the hate, you support it with your silence.

They will exploit you if you become apathetic, disheartened, and spiteful. If you stand for nothing, you’ll fall for their bullshit. To be courageous, loving and hopeful when the world feels like it’s falling apart is the greatest act of resistance and protest you can partake in daily

I don’t know who needs to hear this: your success doesn’t rely on the oppression of others. And if you think it does, please reevaluate your definition of success.

Kudos to whoever created this sign, carried during Saturday’s People’s March and shared as part of a photo montage by @democracynow.org

Feeling disheartened today that we are witnessing a second Trump presidency on MLK day. MLK day is usually a day I find inspiring and uplifting in regard to the power of the people to create social change and stand up against oppression and corruption. There’s a dark cloud cast by his inauguration.
