On Wednesday I asked if you could pick out moments that set you on a path towards NOT becoming one more racist American. Most of us have lived our lives in white privilege – but most of us know what this means, see it, try to find ways to address the injustice around us.
Like I said. This is not a moment to pat ourselves on our backs.
When I’m not here at my desk, I’m outside in the dirt. I have spent much of the past week in my backyard doing cute projects, clearing weeds, planting seeds, moving plants. I even moved a tree! (Granted, it was a small tree.)
In about an hour I will be out there again until all my little vegetable and basil plants are planted. It’s supposed to rain this afternoon.
