"I feel like talking always brings us closer to understanding, rather than dividing us. It can be tough, it can be a little nauseating, we don’t always have the right vocabulary to talk across our differences, but the talking is always better than the ignoring."

Melissa Harris-Perry, professor of political science at Tulane University on talking about racism

(via thesporkreport)

Exactly why I care so much about bringing all sorts of shit up about racism, misogyny, rape culture, heterosexism, ableism, etc.
