Y’all. The shit going on right now is heartbreaking. It’s not new and it is exhausting. If I’m saying that as a white woman, you know BIPOC are nearly worn down to a nub. Check out my recent article I never questioned it because I never thought about it to learn more about my personal journey with Anti-Racism and what I am doing to help. 

I hope these resources, quotes, and questions become a source of inspiration.
