I wanted to find the right quote
from Doctor King.
And then I wondered
what it means
to invoke the words of a dead black man
from within this white body.
Within this white house,
this white community,
this white nation state.
Like the smallest white babushka doll
nesting in all those layers of protective whiteness,
trying to lay claim to the words of a man
slain in a fight for his own humanity
amidst the violent supremacy of whiteness.

It's easier to look at what's happening in the US and shake our heads than to face up to what's happening right here in Australia. Amazing to see how many people are posted for #blackouttuesday - we know that a better world is possible. But only if we're willing to get uncomfortable and build it. Along with so many other lessons, moments like this highlight how badly we need people representing us who actually want to help us build that better world.
Use the moment. Get uncomfortable. Have some conversations. Write to your local MP. Support organisations and people doing good work - link in my bio for a list of groups you could support.
