If You Have Come to Help Me
/“If you have come to help me you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.”
Julia Dinsmore shared this quote on Sunday, saying “Please educate yourselves. I’m so protective of my people…very well meaning folks come in with their ideas…it just hasn’t worked….we are experts on our own lives. Maybe we should be part of creating the solutions…”
What do you feel (emotionally and physically) as you hear this? How does this connect to your experiences?
