Thanks everyone! Really enjoyed chatting! #macrosw

A3: When people think of SWs, do they think of social change? I think when they do, it means SW is leading the way #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

A2: naptime :) #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@gallanja6 it can! it has a way of taking up space in your brain needed for things like thinking, affirming yourself and being positive! #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

A2: a huge self care piece for me is less time on social media, more time meditating/reflecting #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@spcummings @TheMattSchwartz huge impacts....not to mention decrease in quality of education if schools have fewer students able to afford tuition #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@TheMattSchwartz i'm glad you pointed that out...I'm a Canadian student and hadn't thought of that reality in the US - so true! #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

A1: Choosing priorities/where to focus efforts, both individually and collectively #macrosw

@ubsswjwa Hi James!

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

Hi everyone. I'm Aleena, a UBSSW student as well! #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

Thank you all! Great to hear the ideas! #macrosw

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@Justin_Vest I really like the idea of public art projects! #MacroSW @Justin_Vest

@karenzgoda @OfficialMacroSW well played...lol!

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@karenzgoda A4: No plans to participate. Often wonder as a Canadian, what can we do here to support the US at this time? #MacroSW @OfficialMacroSW

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@MaclinDarianne agreed, finding one's voice is an important component of empowerment #MacroSW

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@cassiewrightmsw Love it! Sometimes difficult when not always surrounded by like-minded individuals. We have to search out those who challenge us! #MacroSW

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

A3: I think mass protests are important for so many of the reasons already mentioned...moving change forward #macrosw @OfficialMacroSW

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

MacroSW @OfficialMacroSW The march especially brought awareness to bystanders; maybe more media coverage would increase it community-wide

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@deb_fiske @karenzgoda @OfficialMacroSW So moving!

[Aleena VB @avandenb2]

@karenzgoda A1: a rally/march for Take Back the Night. It was intense and empowering. #MacroSW @OfficialMacroSW
