MEET YOUR HOST : EMPATH ART
Throughout my life, I have been accused of being too sensitive and too emotional. I've been told “let's talk about something more positive” or had someone change the subject when I bring up a social justice issue. However, to me ignoring these issues, repressing my feelings, or telling others their feelings are not valid is not an option. I want people to understand that emotions are not a weakness and how easy it can be to take direct action in our communities.
