Dear George

Staying quiet is a challenge, we’re clear about that But speaking up feels uneasy, cause I’m white and not black Guilt. Shame. How can we whites understand this, you know?

Remembering That All Our Grief Matters Right Now

Many of us will be experiencing grief right now. We may still be in shock at the situation we find ourselves in. We may be in denial, even – not wanting to believe what’s going on around us or within us. We may still be trying to adjust to the strange and new environment we…

I don’t know about you, but I’m never one to buy-into the Christmas frenzy (according to society or ‘media’ rules that is). But then again, that mode fits with my preference to be…
