It’s International Women’s Day, and just over a week after Black History Month ended.
My thoughts today for those who have more privilege: Be quiet for a moment. Listen—listen to hear, to understand, to learn. Trust that those who ask for your support actually do know what they need, and do what you can to realize those needs.
Challenge racism and sexism and transphobia and bigotry. Pass the mic. Vote. Do your own work to undo your biases, however and wherever they appear.
Be less defensive, and lean into growth. Empower. Lift up.
And love, unconditionally.
