“Do not urge me to leave you or turn back from you...your people will be my people” (Ruth 1:16). My name is not Ruth but I love her story. As a multiracial family, many people do not see or experience the world the way we do: racism, managing rare diseases (like PANDAS & cancer) and foster/adoption journeys abound - slamming us into systems of oppression and injustice that I never knew before. But Jesus...I bear witness to what He is teaching me in this “new” world as He heals our broken pieces.

Confessions of A Recovering White Supremacist: How To Be A Good White Friend/Ally
I’ve had the privilege of learning from many many BIPOC professors, mentors, friends and family members throughout my life and they have taught me so many valuable lessons that I see most White Folks rarely learn and enjoy the rich intimacy of multi-racial relationships with people from vastly different cultures and experiences outside of their own. And BIPOC experience a broad scale of injustice from hardly ever to every single day. It’s up to White Folks to be aware and sensitive to that spectrum.
