i don't know if people realize 15/20 yrs ago, we used to have to beg people to come to TJ trainings. We used to have to really *make the argument* about why TJ was important and how it connected to their work. It was like pulling teeth sometimes... and now look at us. Damn.
don't get me wrong, there are still times we have to make the case, for sure. but things are so different now.
like, sometimes i feel like one of those old grandparents who talk about having to walk to school for miles in the snow lolol Sometimes i feel that way about TJ.
Bc the folks from my era of TJ, we were pushed into the deep end of the pool & had to figure out how to swim *while teaching others how to swim at the same time*
sometimes, i'm like, damn, yall are so lucky. look at how many resources you have. wow. don't take that for granted.
