A very important and powerful plea for support.
"If we see people being harmed, it is our duty to help them. If we see bigoted
behavior in our communities, it is our duty to call it what it is. We call upon
men to address sexist behavior, white people to address racist behavior,
cisgender and straight people to address transphobic and homophobic behavior,
and everyone to say what they see, when they see it. And we ask that each of us
be self-reflective and willing to admit when they may be wrong, or when their
own behavior may be causing harm. No-one can clean up all of the garbage, but
we can each pick up whatever pieces we see in front of us throughout the day.
This only works if we have each other’s backs."
Cheers,
