BE A VOICE. NOT AN ECHO
June 02, 2020
Being shocked by the violent death of George Floyd last week – and he’s ‘just’ one of the many examples – I wanted to bring JUSTICE as a topic for my newest Tuesday video.
Watch it below:
Once you’ve had a chance to watch it, I’d love to hear from you. What does justice mean to you? And how can we integrate justice as a value in our relationships?
Leave a comment below and let me know.
Hi Alex….what a time we are in. We are certainly not in justice and maybe, just maybe, we are in a reckoning towards greater justice. I heard a quote today from Sebene Selassie which reads in part : “To belong is also to acknowledge injustice, reckon with history and face our own shadow”. It is my hope and my current belief that all that is unfolding for us in this time is for us to delve deep within and to speak our truths for humanity. This means facing our own bias and lived experience and choose to be and to do what we can in service of treating each and every being with respect for who they are.
We all need to work our way through racism to come to the other side. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.
Thank you for the invitation to share our thoughts.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Patti, as well as this quote!
And yes, it might be a bumpy road but it’s worth to be travelled!
