I’ll never forget when I was at an anti-racism workshop and they had us do this interactive game where they’d say a privilege and if you had it you’d step forward and ofc I was all the way in the back behind everyone, and one white person kept on looking back and making this face
I didn’t get a single door knocker this year (I have a Google Nest, none of the candidates for either provincial or municipal ever stopped by) so without this event, I’d be an uninformed voter.
Last week I went to the meet and greet event for the Ward 10 candidates. I was unsure who I was going to vote for going in and was in a toss up between two people when I got out.
4 of the candidates were in attendance. They all addressed my concerns differently, some inadequately
That’s why I took the two hours out of day and sat with all 4 of them, asked my questions, heard their responses on a personal one on one level.
More people need to do this.
Everyone should have an “in the know” friend who you can text at any time of the day with questions like “who or what is a Rizzler” and they respond with min. 150 words on everything you need to know.
I went to Beyoncé last year, I had floor seats. I was losing my mind, crying and screaming along to the lyrics. While I was dancing and having the time of my life, there were so many people around me watching the concert through their phones.
Not singing, dancing or even talking
