Thank you Sharon for amplifying our voices and stories, that’s how we rewrite our stories and reclaim our preferred narratives.

Happy to do so, Shayla. Thanks for this powerful response and for modelling the choice to sit with something rather than rush to a response.

So many gems in this response: "What one finds confusing is often just unfamiliar, because it wasn’t written in the language of the dominant gaze." "You are allowed to write, speak, teach, and lead in ways that center your truth — not colonial comfort." And also a great reminder to take our time to answer or not answer at all. Love this. So strong!

Thank you so much Ellen. After one year, one can only respond instead of react. I had a choice and I chose wisely.
