Words of a Friend (politics / stress management) 

Quoting this from Jay Edidin (of Jay & Miles X-Plain the X-Men):

"You can't fix everything. That's okay. What you can do is look for the wrongs you can challenge and the rights you can reinforce within your reach; and do so when you encounter them."

"The big fights matter; but so do the small ones. Airlines challenged and refused to participate in Trump's family separation policy because employees came to them concerned about distraught children on flights. Think about that."

Words of a Friend (politics / stress management) 

"You may not have power and privilege on a large scale, but there's likely a place where you've got SOMETHING, even if it's just the ear of a colleague. Use it. Wrap it around your fists and your ideals; and let it help you help others batter down walls."
