Sending Love. Telling people I care about them is a form of resistance I never get tired of. The boost in serotonin reminds me I do better when I'm in community and actively building it. 💙

Expand My Sphere. Following social media accounts of people from communities I'm not a part of helps me see the needs, interests, and beauty of people (without the burden and awkward question asking). Especially seeking out Indigenous people today.

Freedom to Read. With all the book bans happening, this statement reminds me how people collectively fight for the right to make knowledge accessible. Read and sign. (h/t Sara Ahmed on the bird app) uniteagainstbookbans.org/freedomtoread/
Freedom to Read Statement
Originally issued in 1953, the Freedom to Read Statement is just as important 70 years later. We invite all to sign onto the newly affirmed statement.

Tech can be a tool for justice. When we approach it with that lens, how might we educate kids differently? How do our conversations with them shift? "Screen time" is a tired trope. I'd love to focus dialogue on how/when/why/where.

Marginalized (gender or sexuality queer, religious minority, disabled, immigrant) KIDS need/utilize social media communities to recognize they're not alone.
