I am often told it’s not your job/responsibility to educate white people on racism or being black. Then whose job is it then? Now I get it, clearly, it’s the job of the person asking. But my thing is that I don’t have 3+ years for you to do all the research needed to be able to feel like you can contribute to the system of oppression I experience on a regular basis. I need you in the game like 3+ years ago. So, I post this in exploration of a better solution or even more exciting, a new possibility on how to address that. Post some honest questions and thoughts on this in the comments below. I am REALLY curious about your take on it.

How do you as a trailblazer feel like you need to show up?

Do you feel like you need to show up with all your credentials or are you willing to go the actual journey and show people how to navigate challenges as they come along?

Are you willing to lead by example even if its messy?

You couldn’t _______ if you tried.

Where do you play best?

You are the distinction

What in your life are you counting as a success while it in fact should be counted as a failure because it really didnt need to get done?
