Here is wisdom. I learned this too late in life, and am still not sure I’ve learned it well:
❝Don’t feel like you need to fix everything. A common response to bearing witness to another’s trauma is to try and fix it. We don’t want others to suffer. That said, you may not be offering what the other person or group is clearly stating they need. If they need you to listen, and you choose to act but not listen, then you have both not supported them in their trauma and violated a boundary.❞

The racists are coming for women's rights everywhere. Nationwide. And they will use racism to accomplish it.

Do you tell people it’s your birthday when you see them on the day and it’s obvious they forgot / don’t know?

Four years ago, the conservative justices on the Supreme Court decided that gun laws must be rooted in history in order to comply with the Second Amendment.
But they are not always comfortable with the reality this analysis unearths.
The Supreme Court heard oral argument on Tuesday in
"Wolford v. Lopez",
