The self-care ritual of advocacy and my own feelings on guns in America
Let’s imagine for a second (bear with me):
You see through the news (whether via TV, social media, or any other number of ways) that there is yet another shooting at a school (yeah almost expected and unfortunately we are a bit desensitized to it). Now let’s also, for the sake of argument, say you have children that are in the same school level or within a couple of years of the victims who were murdered through this senseless gun violence.
Heart feeling broken yet?
Okay, now let’s say the next day you have to drop your child off at school or usher them onto the bus (this is even before you can even find the words to describe what happened to this innocent child).
