Day 5: B+W Photo Challenge

Day 5: B&W Photo Challenge

A scene from daily life. Today we have spent the day talking about race, white supremacy, and white fragility. We talked about how it’s our responsibility to stand up to injustice, and to keep learning.
We have talked about human rights their whole lives. I grew up in a family that never talked openly about hard topics. Everything was swept under the rug of white privilege.

I don’t want my children to be ignorant of their place in society or how they can change it.
I also don’t want them to think I have things figured out. I don’t. I’m learning. We learn together.
I considered not posting today. What a privilege it is to choose to be silent. I choose to use my voice.
