"When acts of kindness and calls for civility are fueled by social, economic, and racial privilege, these acts are often more about doing just enough to keep the status quo and not about transformative change for those who are experiencing struggle."⠀ ⠀ From my book, "In Defense of Kindness: Why It Matters, How It Changes Our Lives, and How It Can Save the World" released March 16, 2021 by @ChalicePress.⠀ ⠀ Purchase links in bio.⠀ ⠀ #Kindness⠀ #LaunchKindness⠀ #InDefenseOfKindness
