I’m learning to sit in the space between hope and grief. As we celebrate the historic possibility of having a Black woman president, we are also confronted with the heartbreaking reality of Sonya Massey’s death, another Black woman senselessly killed by police. While we rejoice in the strides being made toward representation and leadership, we cannot ignore the systemic injustices that enable police violence and a system that harms rather than heals. As we hold onto the hope for a brighter future, let us channel our grief into fighting for a world where the next Sonya Massey will be treated with the dignity and care she deserved.
