Our intuition is seldom wrong. Rather, it is our interpretation of it that is incorrect.

We have been ingrained with stories that cause us to subconsciously dehumanize certain groups of people. We need healing.

To achieve equity, we must first accept the premise that we are ALL human and we ALL have universal needs. #equity

This is so true. If we want to cultivate the next generation of forward thinkers, we need to equip them with the capacity to create and use their knowledge in unique and practical ways
