The Idea
This idea has come up a few times:
•The Race Crisis Center (damali ayo and collaborators from UMaryland)
• Excedrin for Racial Tension Headaches (youtube it)
• The Racism First Aid Kit (Pat Williams)
It all revolves around the idea that racism leaves a physical, tangible, and emotional wound on people and we need a way to deal with it.
It's time for this thing to be brought to fruition in some form.
Here's what a Pat says:
"Not just a first aid kid, but a full out course of CPR for hit 'n' runs on the streaking highway of racial victimology."
that's hot, right?
so run with that!
Lauryn had a great idea about the I Can Fix It! guide into daily selection cards. That might go here or in another area.
Play with it. You are all creative, smart and hard hitting- so do it up!
