In the beginning

Today marks the middle of the fourth week of my tenure here as an intern at NCCJSTL. I'm beginning to get settled into the expectations I have for the organization, the expectations the organization has for me, and the expectations I have for myself.

I'm finding that there are all sorts of lessons for me to learn here, that I have a lot of personal and professional growth to look forward to. Afterall, I am sitting in a cube working my head around the best ways to end oppression. An easy task, for sure.

So I decided I wanted a way to communicate the different aspects of what I am processing and learning. That's where you and I meet. Here, in this writing, in this blog.

Welcome to my journey through myself, seeking questions and answers about the complexities of understanding and communicating oppression and injustice. Feedback is welcome: even expected. Maybe in the end, together we'll somehow make the world a better place.
