my elevator pitch
*on being a privileged ally*
i am a white straight cis-female raised in a society where negative emotions were not felt&shown , mental health was not priority , & mental illness was hush hush a thing not talked about. i know my experiences are just a speck, aka nothing, in comparison to the mess marginalized groups have & continue to fight thru . but for sure i have felt hurt. & if me, a privileged human , have been taught to hide my true self, then i cannot handle the thought of what //lgbtq+, bipoc, homeless, minorities, etc// groups are feeling.
& this is why i want to be a part of stopping that hurt&hate.
