Unscramble the Blue Letters

NS: I mean, that's definitely an anxiety of our genotiaren, right? Anxieties around ptisnog about social justice. I think the big question here is asking ourselves, like, what am I doing in my own life? You know, and again, there is a spectrum, because there's a lot of people who are sharing a lot of important information via scoail media. So you have, like, organizers and then everybody else. But if you are — Once again, you know, I can't speak for everybody, but just I think it's — I read this quote by an avisctit in Oregon, a lifetime organizer called Grace Lee Boggs, and she said that, you know, that a lot of times in our lvies we don't prioritize the iontapcrme of self-reflection and revolution. And I think, you know, we so care about optics. We don't want ppolee to think that we are racists, sizeist, siesxt, etc. But to not create and redo this kind of harm in the world, we need to understand and really reflect on these systems that we've all internalized to some effect. So to understand, like, where am I on the spectrum? How do I benefit? All of these things actually really take time and deep, you know, self-reflection and work. And that kind of questioning, I think, is something that I find it helpful to be offline because I'm like, otherwise, I'm just lsinentig to what everybody else is saying. Like, are these my thoughts and my flneegis or am I just internalizing what other people are just shouting into the atmosphere and into the internet? I think, there's moments where obviously, a lot the uprisings in June would not have heapnped if it wasn't for the iimaofotnrn that was shared and that action, of course, was so important. But I think there's different phases, you know. And when it's just about shame and opctis, that's not how we change the world. For us to change the world, we need to inhabit and act on these reflections. So I think there are again, more questions to ask ourselves, like, do I just not want people to think that I do this? And often we are in echo chamber of the people who follow us and people we fololw, right? So a lot of the times we're just sharing and shouting into the atmosphere of people who have the same ideals as us. And that energy can be used in a different way. And also sometimes inhibits, I think, real harder conversations from happening, because I think social media isn't often an intimate enough of a space to be able to ask each other qoeutsnis that we're afraid to ask. Or mistakes, it's not favorable to miankg mistakes anymore, which is my critique and ssdneas about social media. You know, our biggest fear is being called out for something. But this call-out culture, sometimes, not always, I understand its role and pacle in society, but sometimes doesn't allow for us to have more eganged conversations around these systems that we've internalized. And we all make mistakes and we all have to lrean and sometimes it doesn't allow for that to happen.

NS: I mean, that's definitely an anxiety of our generation, right? Anxieties around posting about social justice. I think the big question here is asking ourselves, like, what am I doing in my own life? You know, and again, there is a spectrum, because there's a lot of people who are sharing a lot of important information via social media. So you have, like, organizers and then everybody else. But if you are — Once again, you know, I can't speak for everybody, but just I think it's — I read this quote by an activist in Oregon, a lifetime organizer called Grace Lee Boggs, and she said that, you know, that a lot of times in our lives we don't prioritize the importance of self-reflection and revolution. And I think, you know, we so care about optics. We don't want people to think that we are racists, sizeist, sexist, etc. But to not create and redo this kind of harm in the world, we need to understand and really reflect on these systems that we've all internalized to some effect. So to understand, like, where am I on the spectrum? How do I benefit? All of these things actually really take time and deep, you know, self-reflection and work. And that kind of questioning, I think, is something that I find it helpful to be offline because I'm like, otherwise, I'm just listening to what everybody else is saying. Like, are these my thoughts and my feelings or am I just internalizing what other people are just shouting into the atmosphere and into the internet? I think, there's moments where obviously, a lot the uprisings in June would not have happened if it wasn't for the information that was shared and that action, of course, was so important. But I think there's different phases, you know. And when it's just about shame and optics, that's not how we change the world. For us to change the world, we need to inhabit and act on these reflections. So I think there are again, more questions to ask ourselves, like, do I just not want people to think that I do this? And often we are in echo chamber of the people who follow us and people we follow, right? So a lot of the times we're just sharing and shouting into the atmosphere of people who have the same ideals as us. And that energy can be used in a different way.

But this call-out culture, sometimes, not always, I understand its role and place in society, but sometimes doesn't allow for us to have more engaged conversations around these systems that we've internalized. And we all make mistakes and we all have to learn and sometimes it doesn't allow for that to happen.
