Stand in the Gap Hat
I made a promise to ALWAYS “Stand in the Gap” for all black people, people of color and those who are marginalized. This means speaking up, saying something, and doing something when I see or hear racism, when it’s obvious and even when it is not.
I made a promise to ALWAYS “Stand in the Gap.” This is not something I will try to do; this is something I will ALWAYS do.
I challenge YOU, all my friends, followers, family members, and peers to STAND IN THE GAP, always.
I do not have children, but I have many beautiful and beloved children in my life, these little beings are going to see and watch me “Stand in the Gap.” We will have many conversations about what it means to say something, do something, and speak up; what it means to stick up for what is right and to have a friend or strangers’ back even if you don’t know them, even if it feels uncomfortable.
Black Lives Matter. Stand in the Gap. Vote. I hear you. I see you. I stand with you. I promise to always Stand in the Gap.
Gaye Glasspie recently brought the term “Stand in the Gap” to light in an accessible way. She explains it so eloquently in her IG stories and posts. I recommend you taking the time to listen to her. The concept is simple and there is no excuse to not be doing this.
