Transcript

Anti-perfectionism. I am not perfect, And that's okay. I never said I was anyway. Why would you expect me to be? When we know it's unattainable and slavery. To think that we should be flawless, Full of roboticness. I am a goddess, Just being me. We're allowed to make mistakes. You don't have to be a flake. You can take responsibility, Apologize, And be awake. We must learn trauma-informed care for ourselves and each other. We must create systems that actually work for every color. Everyone matters, Not just the majority. Forced assimilation ignores the minority. Our systems must focus on diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Belonging, Justice, Accessibility, And empathy. At the foundation of all law and morality.
