I hope I don't come off...My sister, I FEEL YOU. I hope I don't come off all White Feminist (I identify as Hispanic) but your pain really resonated with bits of what has been swirling in my mind, and what I have been feeling from friends.<br /><br />As to writing, love the piece.<br /><br />As to the message: 1. check out the March's platform. It's so radical, a lot of white feminists peace'd out, and good riddance! I was just reading this before I opened your work, and I'm glad I can cross post: http://bust.com/feminism/18883-the-women-s-march-on-washington-have-released-their-policy-platform-and-it-s-radical-af.html<br /><br />Also, we do what we are able. Our activism is like a muscle. The more we do, the stronger we get, the more we will be able to do. Do what you can now. Later, you'll feel able to do more. Check this site out, it has stuff about ways to get engaged in ways that will help you feel safe, and things about keeping yourself sane:<br />bridgesnotwallsblog.wordpress.com<br /><br />Good luck!!!! :)Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16322564280707406737noreply@blogger.com
