This may seem obvious to some but I think it bears restating: Two things can be true at the same time. We can recognize the U.S. economy is doing better than it has in years and still understand that the poor remain poor and more needs to be done.

We can celebrate that Joe Biden has the most diverse administration ever and still know that marginalized communities are still suffering at a disproportionate rate and more needs to be done.

We can also recognize that the country and the world is better off because Joe Biden is president and still cry over the atrocities that are being committed against marginalized communities around the world.

Yes, let's celebrate the progress that is being made. But let us also know that we must continue to challenge the status quo if we are ever going to be a fully just society. It will be uncomfortable, and even painful at times. But true growth is never easy. Love you all 🙏

When people challenge you, listen. Understand that our lives are still in peril every day just because we exist. I urge our Spoutible family not to fall into the 'whataboutism' trap. Learn from our experiences. Read. Ask questions. We will tell you our truth.
