Kindness matters.
But kindness does not = justice.
Civility counts.
But calling for civility is not the humane response to injustice.
Justice is.
Love is essential.
But love is not a passive, weeping bystander.
Love puts in work.

"But the burdens of the pandemic-induced recession have fallen most heavily on low-income and minority women and single mothers."

For about 18 months, I begged @staceyabrams to run for President. Even though she contemplated a run, her answer always came back to this: “if I don’t help fix voter suppression, it won’t matter who runs for President.”
She’s a masterclass in strategy, focus, and execution.
@AmilynH @GrittyNRoses @BeauTFC Amy, not a correction, just some clarity. Black women often do not get the credit they deserve for their work in these spaces, and it’s important that they do. Thank you for accepting my comment with a generous spirit.
@AmilynH @GrittyNRoses @BeauTFC Love your response and I love John Lewis. But. Stacy turned a huge disappointment into a movement against voter suppression. She mobilized and organized for her race for governor and has not stopped working since 2018. 2 things can be true at the same time

My therapist said something in our last session that I can’t get out of my head:
“Black women don’t often recognize that they’re struggling with depression or anxiety.
Instead, they think they’re failing.”
