This still doesn’t feel real 💔

Nina... there’s so much I want to say to you. I feel so lucky to have known you and to have been your friend for so many years. You were by my side through everything- formals, proms, our first kisses, getting our drivers licenses, graduation, getting into college... so much. For so many years you were my whole world and I am so grateful for every minute.

These last few years we haven’t been as close as we used to be and I wish I could change that. Because... I never got to tell you how proud I am of you. How in awe I am of all the amazing things you’ve been able to accomplish. How grateful I am to have been on the receiving end of your smile, your joy, your love and your friendship.

Your bright light touched so many people and changed so many of our lives for the better.

Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for a lifetime of memories I’ll never forget. And mostly, thank you for being my Neen. ❤️

I’ll love you forever.

Yesterday was my beautiful mom’s birthday! 😍 I was too busy celebrating to tell you about how incredible she is, but she is pretty much the coolest mom ever (just look at her shoes in this pic...)

And thank you to everyone who sent in a birthday video for her! I got 55 videos!!! It was amazing! The best surprise yet and she cried the whole time. ❤️ Thanks for helping make her quarantine birthday so special.

Mom- I love you. Your strength, resiliency, and passion inspire me every day. I hope you felt so loved yesterday! You deserved every moment. ❤️

LA showed up today!!! #blacklivesmatter

Happy birthday dad! Thanks for giving up your day

Happy birthday dad! Thanks for giving up your day to fight for justice.

Today there was a caravan protest in this little town in North Carolina. The cops said they expected 300-400 cars to show up, but 1,000+ were there. It was incredible. We drove through 3 cities, holding signs out the window and honking at all the people who were standing outside their homes and businesses, joining us in solidarity. I didn’t know this many people lived in this town, let alone would join in this movement.

This town came together today to fight for justice. Some cops even held signs that said “I hear you.” And “I am with you.” Thank you NC Impact Coalition & Lanisha Bailey for organizing such a wonderful protest.

I am hopeful. ❤️ #blacklivesmatter

Today I donated to resources that need it & purchased two anti-racism books to teach myself how to be an effective ally. List of books/resources in my story.

What can you do today? ❤️ #Repost @brenebrown with @get_repost

From the dehumanizing language and policy of this administration, to the history of white women using the performative “quiver of fear” when calling the police to report innocent black men, to police brutality, the system is working exactly how it was designed. ⁣
⁣
The system is not broken. This is the expansive and intricate system of dehumanization that was constructed to support white supremacy and slavery. ⁣
⁣
The system is more complex now, but one thing remains at the center: We, the white folks, are the conduit for the system. It was built to serve us. When we do nothing it surges through us. To end racism, we have to break the system. We have to see it and fight against it - we have to be anti-racist. ⁣
⁣
There are many ways to break and rebuild. But here’s what I know for sure: ⁣
⁣
The most important anti-racism work I’ve done over the past 20 years and that I’m still doing is taught and led by people with the lived experience of racial oppression - NOT white people. This includes my professors, writers, activists, bosses, and mentors. For me, it’s also about seeing, sharing, and honoring the lived experiences of my friends whose realities are/were clearly different than mine. ⁣
⁣
Our job is to seek out the teaching, value it, submit to the pain of learning without asking our teachers to absolve us or add our emotions to their load, and know that being held accountable is hard and painful. And part of learning is acting and doing. ⁣
⁣
There are many teachers who are leading the way. Here are some teachers that I follow and who are doing critical work right now. ⁣

If you know of other teachers - please leave them in the comments. Amplify their voices and their work. Buy their books. Take their classes. Break the system

Yesterday I woke up in a funk. I posted on my IG story and asked for advice on how everyone is practicing self care in quarantine and SO many lovely humans gave me such good ideas. So I’m posting the list here to share in case you need it too 💙

1️⃣ Watching your favorite TV show in a bath with candles and 5 (or 15) glasses of wine 🍷👌🏼
2️⃣ Ordering takeout from a local place, building a blanket fort, & watching a movie
3️⃣ Buying yourself a gift on Amazon
4️⃣ Giving yourself a manicure/pedicure
5️⃣ Reading a book outside
6️⃣ Filling your empty cup with alcohol (which I did yesterday- 10/10 would recommend 😂)
7️⃣ Doing something new- learning a new skill to switch it up!
8️⃣ FaceTiming friends!
9️⃣ Doing a workout (like my class 😍)
🔟 DIY- scented candles, making bread, making lemonade
⏸ And honestly like 20 people said baths so it seems that that is where I’m gonna start!

Thank you friends!! This was so helpful! Thanks to everyone who reached out and sent love too. Feeling v loved. 🥰🥰🥰.
