is your organizing trauma-informed? are you reckoning honestly with the resentments and hurts you carry? we all have them and that is no shame
we cannot solve or cure one another& #39;s old wounds, and when we expect that of one another we harm our organizing, which is our capacity for meaningful relationships
but we can show up for one another honestly and authentically-- which includes knowing our own capacities, boundaries, and limits. any relationship where you are not allowed to have boundaries will harm you
it& #39;s so easy to get stuck in responsibility, or guilt, or shame in a way that harms you and, ultimately, harms the movement. to paraphrase sonya renee taylor, we are not going to get out of this with the same strategies we& #39;ve been using. we must be rigorously kind to one another
