A bit of encouragement I just overheard:

“…solidarity is not necessarily a science or a math equation, but it’s a commitment to a practice. it’s knowing that in some ways you’re going to get it right, and in some ways there’s going to be room to continue to grow and evolve, and I think it’s the commitment and the willingness to be in that balance…This is not the first time, nor the last time, that we will try to come back to this question and answer it.”*

I really like the idea of…even though unable to fully answer a question the first time I ask it- even though I can’t answer Everything Now (though I want to)…being able to answer it more correctly, more articulately, more perceptively, more intuitively and creatively the more I choose to return to it. The more i ask myself, “How can I better serve black people with this decision/that action/these words/etc.?” the better I will become at it.

Happy and Blessed Juneteenth, Everyone 🙂
