“If this feels like a very insular approach to the work of fighting injustice, perhaps it is. Exhaustion is always a very real signal that a pivot is necessary. For Black folks, our physical bodies need rest. Our emotional and spiritual selves need refreshment and guidance. Our collective body needs safety. So gatekeeping our joy—which includes our creativity and innovation—is a necessary mode for surviving the years and fears ahead.”

Mam, this.
