@Iamkeithcurry @SDMesaPrez @CollegeFutures While we may not directly shape the narrative that continues to spew hate-filled rhetoric & actions that aim to dehumanize & target members of our community, I'm hopeful & encouraged at how we impact our local sphere of influence, sustaining an inclusive environment. 5/5

Many things give me hope among them: I am optimistic that we learned much while creatively responding to a global crisis. IVC came together as a community & as we reengage in person we are stronger & better equipped. 2/5
