“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” ― James Baldwin

I’ve been debating about posting this today. With everything going on it might seem like I’ve got my head in the sand. I do not. I don’t want to act like nothing’s happening, but I also believe that creativity and the energy around it is very needed right now. If you can, donate to the ACLU or the Official George Floyd Memorial Fund do that and help fight the good fight.
