Some Day Of Silence Thoughts

some day of silence thoughts

I participated today, but..

Honestly, -it’s a good cause and it’s moving- but silence isn’t doing anything to help us. We are already silenced every day , we don’t need silence to be our “visibilty” .

 I want to be loud, say something about how bullying and “micro"aggresions systematically tear us down. Because at the end of the day, teachers will still do nothing about the blatant harassment and slurs being thrown across their classes, and nothing will have changed. 

Observe the Silence for those we’ve lost, but do Not let this be the pinnacle of your involvement, support, or visibility.
