i am slowly coming to understand that activism should be built on joy, community, and connection - not anger or fear.

anger and fear are very valid emotions to feel in the current political situation* but trying to build a movement out of them leads to burnout and brittle, polarized communities. joy and connection lead to individual flourishing and community resilience

* actually all emotions are always valid but these are especially common and understandable right now
