Those of us who do this work need to be responding from our personal way of communicating, and deepening the ability to read each situation as it arises. Learning to adapt and be attuned to the individual and the circumstances is so key. We don’t want people doing the work who cannot function at this level, and only show up with a list of “things to say”. Amber, I am a big fan of yours, and essentially what you are saying is good, true and needed. This work is not for the feint of heart nor is it for everyone, but in the end white people know white people, and it is imperative we take that knowledge and use it for good…that good being the dismantling of hate among those whose privilege coupled with power has resulted in this heinous world that has been created. Not sure how this will read in the morning….but you got me going there :0)
