Learning to be an Ally in Indigenous Activism
“I had good intentions, but quickly learned that I could not understand Shannen’s struggle. I could never experience the pain and injustice caused by colonization’s legacy, or the unfairness of having inadequate schooling. So how could I confront the injustice I witnessed? This question helped me realize I could ally with Indigenous-led movements.” READ MORE

A Tale Of Two Spectrums: The Challenges of Being Both Queer and Autistic
“Many autistic people may come out as LGBTQ+ while some of their neurotypical peers may not because of two traits that many autistic people share: a lack of adherence to social norms and a strong sense of honesty. Openly identifying as queer may come a little easier to folks who aren’t tied to social expectations of gender and feel the need to tell the truth.

This includes not only inequities in access … READ MORE

“I Woke Up Like This”: The Beauty Industry, Gaslighting, And The Bravery Of Loving Yourself
“The way women have been taught to tear each other down does not actually benefit us. If we want to create supportive spaces, our only option is sisterhood — and unfollowing accounts that don’t support our mental health.
