Absurd Creation

(6/6) There are small acts of resistance every day, but we can’t keep them all safe, and they know it.

(5/6) I know trans kids at the middle and high school afraid to be who they are. Teachers were already not allowed to use their correct names and pronouns without permission due to Parents’ Bill of Rights. Now we may not be able to honor the wishes of the parents who know that love is unconditional.

(4/6) I see parents refuse to open the door when school staff do home visits to provide support. They are unsure of who we are and now opening the door to strangers could lead to tragedy.

(3/6) I know our students are scared. They are in a system that already sometimes neglects them despite the best efforts of the people working at the school, and now the future is even more uncertain for them.

(2/6) I’m thankful that the many flags representing all of the countries of origin for our students are hanging on display on the walls. We had complaints when they were first hung. I’m glad we ignored them then, but now I wonder for how much longer they will be allowed.

(1/6) As I sit in a public elementary school with a high percentage of Spanish-speaking and migrant students, I have a lot of thoughts.

Petition to Protect the UNCA Urban Forest UNC Asheville’s 45-acre urban forest—a vital community resource and wildlife habitat—is under threat of development. Without notice, excavation began on January 13, destroying ecological research plot...

Please consider signing this petition! UNCA is not being honest about their intentions for this land and this will have a huge negative impact on my neighborhood as well as cause more deforestation after Asheville already lost 40% of its tree cover following Helene.

Woman with a Parasol - Madame Monet and Her Son, 1875 - Claude Monet

Feeling good, and making others feel good, can be a subversive act in and of itself. Laugh, dance, make and share art. Live life as fully and freely as you can.

Things are scary right now. But our community is strong. And there are thousands more like it all around. Hold onto hope that there is hope.
