OTHERS
This is a space to cite sources, and show work. None of us are born with our current commitments or analysis, and I am always grateful when people talk about what, over time, changed their minds.
So here are some of the beings/orgs who I feel most grateful to be shaped by, in long-term, ongoing ways, with a suggested starting place to learn from and about each. They all taught me something I didn't know, and I'll tell you if you ask <3
