Therese Patricia Okoumou. Patriot.

UPDATE December 6,2018 @odinsblog

It is a very rare thing for me to disagree so hard with a progressive Black woman, but Therese Patricia Okoumou IS a hero. And she certainly did not let anyone down. Fighting for young children who were being caged and separated from their parents is never ever the wrong thing to do. What she did—resisting Trump and publicly speaking truth to power—required great courage. Okoumou is a hero and an activist. A social justice warrior in the truest sense of the word.

After repeatedly reaching out to the mainstream media and asking them to continue covering her story, she is being ignored by them now. But remember: they were happy to use her when she was the hot story and good for ratings. Now they apparently cannot be bothered to interview her, or call out the injustice of her impending imprisonment. (#WhiteFeminism)

If anyone knows of any lawyer or anyone who might be able to help Therese Patricia Okoumou with her appeals process, please reach out to her on her Twitter account.

I’m 100% not ready for season 8 so here’s some sheith in the mean time

New Altea!

what allura’s arc should’ve been about: learning to forgive herself for the pain of her past, and figuring out how to let go of it and not compare herself to what once was in order for the old to make way for the new. Being open to change and new ideas allows us to build towards a better future, and harboring desires for revenge blocks our path to true progress and peace. 

what shiro’s arc should’ve been about: recognizing that he is not broken because of his body or his illness or his modifications or his traumatic experiences. That being a real hero comes from being able to stay true to your inner goodness, fight for what is right, and to rebuild yourself again and again, convincing those around you to do the same and never give up. 

what lance’s arc should’ve been about: self confidence is made stronger by working through moments of self doubt. Without our insecurities, we wouldn’t be able to identify what makes us great in the first place. Our goals and our dreams are attainable as long as we are courageous enough to put in the work and try. We shouldn’t always look outward for the validation we deserve.

what keith’s arc should’ve been about: needing others is not a weakness, and losing people we care about doesn’t negate the value of forming close bonds with those around us. It is our relationships with others where we learn to accept and love ourselves. To love and be loved is a gift, and we can learn to navigate and lead others through those connections. 

what hunk’s arc should’ve been about: fear is a universal trait, and being afraid of something doesn’t mean you aren’t brave. There is more than one way to be heroic, and continually believing in the power of trying to see the good in the universe and connect with people is always worthwhile. We all have things in common, even our fears, and acknowledging that is a strength. 

what pidge’s arc should’ve been about: home is not a place. We are always linked to those we love, no matter how far apart we are. Our actions, stories and knowledge that we share amongst us all is what weaves us together. And doing things that would make someone proud is a way to stay connected with them, even if they’re not around.
