“At the core of social justice is critical self reflection. As with all personal growth work, it is an ongoing process, there’s always another layer to pull back, another piece of information or lesson to learn
.
Our understanding of oppression, privilege and social identities are guaranteed to evolve, and with that evolution comes opportunities to grow, challenge ones beliefs and figure out how to integrate new understandings into our work and life
.
This self work helps us find our people, those already committed to this work. It helps build alliances and coalitions
.
We question together
We challenge together
We dream together
We disrupt together .
.
We do this because we can only get free together.. We don’t get free without the self reflection, analysis, the lens that social justice asks us to develop
.
