Dear white parents:
You know that terrifying active shooter conversation you have to have with your kids that makes you feel outraged at how unsafe our country has become?
Every black parent in America has to have that talk with their kids about COPS.
Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.
My advice to Black girls everywhere: whenever you find yourself in a room where there aren't a lot of people who look like you — be it a classroom, or a boardroom, or a courtroom — remember that you have an entire community in that room with you, all of us cheering you on.
biggest lesson this year:
as an introvert, in pain it’s easy to shut people out because ‘you know how to deal on your own’ but the greatest feeling in the world is learning how to give pieces of yourself that are tired to people who know how to keep it whole
social media has made it look "ok" to constantly produce work, when it's actually unhealthy to be forcing ideas out and producing meaningless art. let your ideas flow, because three amazing ideas are better than thirty crap and meaningless ideas. https://t.co/4dh92rXgQz
