we as a society MUST stop killing & harming ppl

There are 1001 ways to avoid difficult, uncomfortable change.

Those who (I’m going to be frank) are lazy, selfish or lack sufficient ability or courage, will oppose change, often also mislabeling other people either as lazy “moochers” or aggressors.

A culture of civility only empowers the true aggressor. It allows silencing and mislabeling of anyone who speaks up regarding system level harm or interpersonal harm.

The podcast and the peer reviewed articles are the easy part, relatively.

What are people willing to do in their busy day-to-day lives & workplaces?

I see a lot of what #MLK wrote about in his letter from the Birmingham jail.

Order/civility culture harms.

Justice > Order
