This Olympics, one of old-school hip hop's greatest hype men, Flavor Flav, is showing us all what it means to use your power and privilege to act in solidarity with others. 🤽🏽♀️ Earlier this year one of the members of the US Water Polo team, Maggie Steffens, put out an appeal asking for financial support to make it possible for her to head to the Olympics this summer, and Flav answered the call. “As a girl dad and supporter of all women's sports - imma personally sponsor you my girl,,, whatever you need," he commented. "My manager is in touch with your agent and imma use all my relationships and resources to help all y'all even more. That's a FLAVOR FLAV promise.” And Flavor Flav stepped up and sponsored the entire team 🎉🎉🎉  ✨ I truly believe in every situation we have power and we can use our power to act in solidarity with others. And that’s just what Flavor Flav did. He made other’s dreams possible. ✊🏾 Acting in solidarity is about more than preventing harm - you can be a conduit for joy and dreamwork too. We can help create possibilities for each other. Check out the article in the comments to learn more about Flavor Flav’s sponsorship of the team. How have you used your power to act in solidarity with others? Leaders, if you’d like to explore how you use your power to make a difference for your team and change the way you work together, DM me and we can set a call to see if I can help! #Solidarity #LiberatoryPractices #Power #OlympicGames
