💜 “I think that part of the work is actually trying to reframe and rebuild what the expectations are and should be. Because part of what makes this feel impossible is that we are being asked to meet a standard that wasn't built for us. It wasn't built by us. And so we're trying to replicate the models that we have seen of leadership that is typically very white, and very male, and very capitalistic. And very misogynistic. I mean like those are the models that are most pervasive in for-profit and not-for-profit spaces! And so we have to do the work of not only trying to be taken seriously, but also try to dismantle all of those things that have been the typical tools folks have used to maintain power. It is real wild! But I'm hopeful that our generation can continue to rethink like - what does it look like to lead from compassion? To not to not strive for perfection? To really truly embody this idea that things don't have to be perfect to be wonderful.” feministcenter ED Kwajelyn Jack...
