"There is so much pressure to toe the line. By even attempting to bridge you put your neck on a chopping block. It is so much easier to stay the course." - @RiazPatel speaks to the challenges creatives face in creating nuanced characters with diverse perspectives
Fantastic event right now. @RiazPatel just said this amazing thing: "For content, hope is key. What you look for is what you see. If you put more hope out, people will see more hope in their own lives."

I think there are always 2 parts:
1) Why they pick up a gun
2) How they access the gun
The problem is never either/or. It’s some combination of both.
They don’t separate the children by political party when they shoot them.
I think we should work together 🙏🏽
Asking a politician to do the right thing against their own interests and job security is almost always a waste of time - it’s only by changing incentives that we can expect a better result.
@pingpongpinard I don’t think it’s going to be a top-down solution. Local communities will have to take responsibility for their schools’ safety. Which means both sides have to talk & work together. Anger & division make tons of money for the top-levels so they are not incentivized to try.
