I am a teacher and mother to those whose cultures or backgrounds have forbidden them from learning and experiencing important truths and lessons
I am participating because i think that things like this are important and that we should learn to accept ourselves no matter what our labels are.

I always find time in the day to compliment other women, specifically women of color who are of African descent. I am a proud dark-skinned woman and I realize that my beauty has not been celebrated culturally or in the media. Often, and in many countries, dark skin is despised and rejected; women of my complexion are judged and socially labeled inferior or the subordinates of other women that are more Eurocentric and possess European features.
I am automatically labeled because of my skin complexion and I feel that the prejudgment involved in the hierarchy of skin complexion is largely misleading.

While in line at the grocery store, the person in front of me didn’t have enough to complete their transaction. I paid the difference of what was owed and they were so grateful.
We all need to be a little more kind to each other. This is a nice reminder of that!

I'm always there for others, whether it be to prevent a suicide, or just someone to talk to when in an emotional situation. I enjoy making people smile with either a stupid joke, or listening to music.
To tell people that they shouldn't judge others. Even if you know someone's situation, doesn't make it ok to call them out on it. Be there, be supportive.
