Are you doing your work?

Black Lives Still Matter.

What are you doing to help fight anti-Blackness today? Anti fat bias? Anti semitism? Transphobia? Ableism? I want my work to be anti racist and anti oppression. I’m working on what that looks like for me and I’m always open to talk about it with others who are interested in figuring it out too.

In my personal life I’ve established a practice of anti racist education, media literacy for my kids, mutual aid and harm reduction. We give monthly to the Equitable Giving Circle and help pay the rent for a Black family through White Homework, founded by Tori Williams Douglass.

Because I’m the full-time caregiver to a disabled child I am not able to leave my house very much. So a lot of my activism is online through social media such as speaking out about uncomfortable issues and amplifying anti oppression stories and messages. I’m also trying to build relationships with people online who are interested in disability justice, Land Back and other liberation movements. I’d love to hear what you’re doing and see if there’s room to improve my practice.
