On International Nurses Day, let’s celebrate the nurses and medical professionals around the world who do so much for so many. And let’s thank them the best way we can: by getting the COVID-19 vaccine and encouraging our friends and family to do the same.
That a family had to lose a son, brother and father; that a teenage girl had to film and post a murder, that millions across the country had to organize and march just for George Floyd to be seen and valued is not justice.
And this verdict is not a substitute for policy change.
“The women we honor today teach us three very important lessons. One, that as women, we must stand up for ourselves. The second, as women, we must stand up for each other. And finally, as women, we must stand up for justice for all.”
― Michelle Obama
Happy #WomensDay
