Racism is NOT enacted through name calling or ways of thinking, it comes through laws and policies and tangible systemic functions. You can NOT defeat racism through symbolism alone, you have to incrementally pick at it through the same systems that allow it to operate.

So honoured to be profiled by Ryerson. Racism isn't necessarily something I was dying to write about. But I'm done with silence. x.com/RyersonReview/…

You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Maya Angelou

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.
