    In your opinion, how do social inequalities diminish a strong sense of community?

    I think it’s a complicated question. I live on a street that is very diverse economically as well as racially, and I feel that we have a pretty strong sense of community in a sense. We all complain about each other, but when something happens, we all come together to help.

    How can nurturing your Self-Compassion also nurture healthier relationships with others and the environment?

    I think I’ve become more forgiving all around, and hopefully I will continue to go further. I think it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the climate crisis, and therefore harder to see accomplishments that are happening. While doing that, you kinda forgot how some environmental accomplishments are huge. So I think by nurturing self compassion, it will translate into feeling more nurturing towards nature.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Action Track: Justice for the Whole Community Research Voter Suppression
    What are the ways in which voters are prohibited from or discouraged from voting in your region and/or state? What could be done to get rid of these barriers?

    I learned that in VA former felons aren't allowed to vote even after they have served their sentence. We also don't have same day voter registration. Currently there is an amendment out to further instill gerrymandering under the guise of bipartisanship. Lots could be done. VA is definitely more conservative than should be expected under total democratic control.

    I think when people really listen to what you’re saying, it validates your feelings and there is a deeper understanding between two people. I think the nerve isn’t so raw, and I think you are more willing to find common ground then to just self protect, and I think that can led to some really beneficial improvements.
