In order for oppression to flourish the dominant group must never identify as white or as benefiting from white privilege; the dominant group must ‘forget’ about their membership in the white group; the dominant group must pretend that the problem was in the past
Again, as in the Bde Maka Ska story and the Ft. Snelling sign. None of this is about language. Or history. It's about some whites feeling they're losing their grip on dominating a society. Every issue is just a proxy for that and it's time we talk about THAT as the root issue.
When something bad happens, you're allowed to be sad. Grief is a natural part of any change that we're going thru. #grief#itsnormaltobesad#trustyourself
I'm convinced we just don't have to -and can't- do the hard things in life alone. We can learn how to better accompany ourselves and others they the hard stuff - which is what I'm writing my book about #ComeAlongSide
It’s 2019. Can we all now please stop saying “climate change” and instead call it what it is: climate breakdown, climate crisis, climate emergency, ecological breakdown, ecological crisis and ecological emergency?

Gmorning
It’s not too late
It’s not too late
It’s not too late
Your life is right here and in your care.
Long as you’re here,
it’s not too late.
Let’s go.
I will continue to call Bde Maka Ska by its rightful name. That was the lake's name before people who look like me renamed it to honor a slavery apologist and — as far as I'm concerned — that is still its name today.
