#blackouttuesday

Fellow white people... Staying silent for a day is not the answer (#blackouttuesday).

It also doesn't help denying your own racist indoctrination. It is real. It affects your "black and POC friends" and it shapes the world you are part of.

So talk about it - to your kids, to your friends, at work - until there is more understanding, more empathy and more inclusion.

And then, start looking for ways to take action. What can you do to reduce the indoctrination of your own kids? How can you contribute to and support a positive movement in your community? How can you speak up for human rights at work?

We are all responsible for creating the world we live in. #blacklivesmatter

Look into my eyes and smile Follow me with your gaze Come and stand beside me Drink in my scent Graze my arm with yours And let yourself breathe out You're safe here by my side Talk with me about everything And nothing at all Laugh, and cry with me Share a meal with me Hold me close and cherish me. Touch my hand as we walk together Write me words of love Lose yourself in my embrace And find out what I'm worth Kiss like it's the first time, the last time and the best Take me away with you And show me all the rest.

Dream

Would you mind dreaming with me a little while longer Because I'm not finished with you yet You tell me not to remember But I don't want to forget It may not be perfect, nor am I, neither are you But you bring me something I can hold on to It helps me surrender It helps me advance And most of all, you already know, It makes my soul dance.

Parallel lines

We’re a pair of parallel lines You’re just like me We’re on the same path But we don’t ever meet You talk to all my friends  but me I guess I’m not that nice after all You You’re in the house up on a cloud Me I’m on a mission.
