SCOTUS and Affirmative Action…

in the delusional world of the conservative majority within the Supreme Court, systemic racism and unequal access to resources no longer exist. 

equally delusional is the view of “color blindness” as if not seeing someone in all their diverse beauty is somehow not racist and disingenuous. the conservative majority within the Supreme Court seems to be suffering from the too often seen symptom of privilege – selective amnesia. 

today’s ruling is harmful and plays right into the pathetic and destructive hands of White Nationalism.

uff. what a time, seeing such hard won progress struck down in an instant.

may we buoy our hearts and minds, friends, for all that is happening and ahead. may we find practices to keep our hearts open, and our minds clear and steady. practices that birth the best of who we are and can be – our authenticity, empathy, tenderness, kindness, fierce compassion, clarity, resilience, and balance. 

while others seek to destroy and harm, may we be a sanctuary, a refuge, and a place of healing and protection for all those affected.

may we rise up in voice, action, and art.

love sees color and celebrates its beauty, and love will win.
