ミーナ・スヴァーリさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ミーナ・スヴァーリInstagram)「I came across this meme, not too long ago, and I keep coming back to it because, for me, it resonates. I feel like it’s a pretty good summation of where I’m at, emotionally, with everything. I completely understand and acknowledge that we’re all entitled to our opinions (hence my page which you come to visit), but where I fall short is in understanding someone’s behavior based off of, what I consider selfish intentions. Because here’s my deal: I consider myself a white cis woman, who no matter how many struggles I have faced and overcome in my life, these moments will NEVER!!!!! compare to so many other ways in which others have and continue to suffer. So, I consider it MY DUTY to give back. I consider it my duty to SHARE. I consider it my duty to USE MY VOICE in this platform, in which you all gave me, to help give back and raise awareness for others. I CONSIDER IT MY DUTY.✊🏼 And this, also, poses the question, “Why not share?”. WHY?! There’s enough to go around. There’s no need for your fellow being to suffer. And what here in this page has ever stated otherwise? For YEARS, I have fought to help raise awareness to the constant injustices within animal agriculture. So, why wouldn’t I acknowledge this same injustice with our “human” community?! I fight for every form of oppression. Remember, I am not your American Pie. You can consider me a utopian dreamer, but I will never stop fighting for more love and peace and awareness and justice. I will not “stay in my lane” or just be an “actor who should act”. I will not stay quiet when my heart is sick of seeing the pain and unnecessary treatment of others. I have shut the comments section down in my page, because to me, if you follow me, I know you’re down. But I REFUSE to give a platform to anyone else who aims to spew hate and misinformation. That is where I draw the line. I thank you for following me, I thank you for considering me and what I believe in, and I thank you for always sharing your love and light with me. Let’s never give up. This world can be a better place. And each and everyone one of us can carry that love for each other in our hearts to bring about the change we need. 🤟🏻」7月6日 2時41分
