A Society Where We Feel As Safe

In the U.S., this has been yet another week of waking up to news of domestic tragedy and violence against communities of color. It's difficult to see this about ourselves and it's critical that we do. 

I don't think there are any easy solutions, but I thought about what I wish for and wrote it down. That's where I begin. 

For anyone who is suffering this week, I hope there is momentary relief enough to replenish your strength and spirit. 

Thanks for reading.

4-panel comic text: I desperately want to live in a society where my black and brown friends feel as safe as my white friends and my Asian parents don't have to be afraid to leave home. That would be dope. (*By the way, it's weird how we still say skin is "black and white.")
