	The 3rd Annual Green… on Take a PIC baby, please!
	#SheSaidYes! –… on #SheSaidYes Part 2

In getting ready to explore micro-aggressions for the bookclub I’ve been reliving some of the most stressful and frustrating moments in my career. Yesterday especially really dug up some emotions that I forgot were there. It’s funny how your friends will sometimes send you what you need to read without know what you’re going through. A good friend sent this article in one of our chats and in reading it it felt reaffirming to know how many women also struggle with this ever present stress. I sometimes get home so exhausted by the little bits of racism I see every day and weighed down by the ongoing saga that is our government that all I can manage to do is put myself to sleep. I know that cannot be good for my overall health, but I do work hard to remedy that stress. #carefreeblackmom . . . “Small acts of resistance I’m not kidding myself. We can't wash away these systemic issues in a great wave of black women’s pleasure. But it is a start. “Sex encourages self-love and patience when dealing with oppression by teaching us that we don't have to put our pleasure, of any kind, in the hands of others,” says Tiffani Lashai Curtis, a sex writer in Philadelphia. We deserve to feel joy, excitement and—you guessed it—pleasure.” #latinx #AAPI #WOMANIST #intersectionalfeminism #blacklivesmatter #blm #Blackpanthers #riseupfightback #blackmen #blackwomen #blackfamily #imblackfirst #civilrights #womensrights
