I'm doing my best to "listen" well as anti-racist conversations play out
here and in the whole world. As we've seen in this listserv, communicating
is key as well. We all make mistakes. We are all human beings. Accepting,
owning, and learning from our mistakes is so important. Thank you, Andrea,
for being a role model for all.
