How do we build a more equitable world?

A world where historically marginalized groups find equal footing with power-dominant groups. A world where everyone does the necessary internal work, and extends grace to themselves and others when mistakes are made.

Dr. Tina Opie and Dr. Beth Livingston wrote the book, Shared Sisterhood: How to Take Collective Action for Racial and Gender Equity at Work. In it, they offer a framework for creating a more just world: Dig, Bridge, Advance.

Working these steps invites discomfort and requires uncomfortable conversations, but they are vital.

It’s time to get comfortable being uncomfortable, myself included.

Content note: Brief, non-graphic mention of sexual assault
