Let's talk about racism. Have you seen any messages or memes that you thought were racist or offensive? If so, talk about what you've seen or heard.

Yes, let's talk about racism. I've not seen messages or memes about the COVID pandemic that seem racist or offensive, but I am glad that conversations about racism are happening. Awareness is being heightened (once again) about racial disparities whether regarding health care, educational opportunities or economic challenges. It's right that these conversations are happening. I've chosen books like 'Caste' and 'White Fragility' to help me gain a better understanding; I've engaged in conversations about the topic; I search for ways to be of support for those in need. May conversations move - albeit slowly - toward actions that foster equality.
