ベスト・コーストさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ベスト・コーストInstagram)「i am very grateful to have this platform to share information and engage with y’all. ⁣ ⁣ I also want to remind you (and myself) that social media is only ONE part of the equation for real change. Over the last few days i have watched people shame one another for literally doing their best. And while i understand that educating ourselves during this moment in time is one of the most important things we can do, shaming your peers for not being as educated as you are on some of these topics, does nothing.⁣ ⁣ Do your own research! If you’re confused, ask for clarification! Talk to people respectfully! We all have the same destination, some are just taking longer to get there because they’re newer to some of these topics.⁣ ⁣ What can happen when people feel shamed is they feel stupid and then may feel tempted to bow out of the conversation because they don’t know enough and we need ALL the voices we can get right now! I believe in good intentions vs. bad intentions and only YOU know what your intentions are (and hopefully they are good!) ⁣ Not everything you do to support this movement has to be via Instagram/Twitter! Get involved at a local level! Look into things like budgets to see how your communities are spending YOUR tax payer dollars and then call your local reps and DON’T stop calling until they hear you. VOTE both locally and nationally! Phone bank for things you believe in! Call your Trump supporting family members! Inform your parents! Talk to your kids or the youth closest to you! Education is vital and it’s a shame they don’t teach us the necessary tools for life in school but hey, the ability to educate yourself on this stuff is a PRIVILEGE. ⁣ ⁣ And REMEMBER to take care of yourselves! This is going to be a long and hard fight, we all need to be healthy and connected to ourselves to keep pushing ❤️ It’s ok to log off and take a break, just keep doing the work in other places. This post in and of itself is not meant to shame or preach I just have been seeing (and on the receiving end) of shaming this week and I don’t find it helpful to this movement at all. Luv ya, Beth」6月7日 2時26分
