Kennedy
I don't think colleges are safe spaces. It's one thing to have a fraternity house or a community center where students can go and talk about their shared experiences.

I think that we need to begin talking about what does it mean to create these safe spaces in our communities, to begin welcoming one another into our homes and into our communities when they're returning home from prison, people who are on the streets. We need to begin doing the work in our own communities of creating the kind of democracy that we would like to see on a larger scale. — Michelle Alexander
Signs usually come in threes. The same book is recommended to you several times within the space of a day, for example. You overhear someone mention the same company three times in a week.

False guidance feels edgy, shaky - like you're sneaking under the wire. It doesn't feel right. — Doreen Virtue

With what happened during the 2016 election, now is the time that we should feel our most brave and most fearless. — Camille A. Brown
Families that I lived with a little bit in junior high and quite a bit in high school and college. Just to have a safe, sane space with food and things like that. That's what I needed.

"Marginalized others" have access to other ways of knowing, and therefore to deeper, more authentic truths about human reality.

With space travel, [it's] no different. You know, in 1990 I read the name Virgin Galactic Airways. Loved the name.
