We’ve been conditioned to believe that empathy, care, and justice are scarce resources, and that if someone gains rights or support, someone else must lose them.
This isn't the case.
We made this shit up.
Wanting better for everyone isn’t a threat, it’s the foundation of collective liberation!!

Does anyone else find they're more unmasked when masking? Someone apologised for being in my way (??) on the train this morning and I started to try and make the appropriate face for the interaction, then realised I was wearing a mask and dropped all expression immediately. Felt like a relief. #life

Is it weird that I like going places and taking pictures of books on shelves that I read or that I own? I get all excited like I'm seeing an old friend. Two old friends in this one specifically. Any guesses? #booksky #blackbooksky
