Tips for motivating yourself when exhausted:

  • three shots of espresso
  • listen to loud or upbeat revolutionary songs
  • think about the vast inequality between economic classes or read the news to see what politicians are getting away with (anger = a powerful motivator)

In light of everything going on right now, I won’t be doing anything for Barricade Day, and I won’t be mixing fictional characters/failed rebellions with the current protests.

I will say this, though—there’s a lot of injustice in this world, but there’s also hope. A better future is possible, and we can work toward it by examining our beliefs, actions, relationships, and lifestyles, as well as doing all we can to fight racism and inequality (protesting, donating, raising awareness within our communities, listening to and elevating black voices, signing petitions,  educating ourselves, holding family and friends accountable for their behavior, and so much more.) 

Black lives matter.

Stay strong everyone, and please be mindful when posting about Barricade Day.

“Social distancing” - unspecific - conceptual  - not everyone takes it seriously

“Keeping a low profile before the Revolution” - very informative - expresses a responsible level of revolutionary spirit  - shows commitment to both justice and public safety
