I’m so glad you noticed and spoke up. It sounds like the conversations went well and the various organizations have the same desires you have. I probably would’ve been quick to jump to a conclusion and bitch about it on Twitter. I need to have more conversations. Thank you.

Thanks for the comment! Yeah, it is so much easier to bitch on Twitter, isn't it? But I find people don't usually respond well to being tweeted at 😉so sometimes going old school with a two way phone call has better results.

Thanks so much for your example, Louise. This is exactly the kind of personal advocacy that can make a difference.

I can’t love this enough! Uncomfortable conversations are so important, especially as a white woman, who didn’t even realize I did in fact have poc friends in my small town, but didn’t notice. This is a humbling experience, one that is so important to undertake and truly be an advocate.

Thanks Lindsay. Getting over the uncomfortableness is definitely a process.
