"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frighten us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be ?
You are a child of the universe.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence liberates others."
[Marianne Williamson]

'an invalidation of identity/experiences'

'Living in a world that reminds you daily of your lesser worth as a human being can make a person very tired and emotional.'... 'When someone says something oppressive'... 'an invalidation of identity/experiences' - 'it feels like being slapped in the face'... 'And, frankly, it’s cruel and ridiculous to expect a person to be calm and polite in response to an act of oppression.'... 'But being emotional does not make one’s points any less valid.'... 'But anger is valid. Anger is valid, anger is important, anger brings social change, anger makes people listen, anger is threatening, and anger is passion.'

'Anger is NOT counterproductive; being “nice” is counterproductive. Nobody was ever given rights by politely asking for them. Politeness is nothing but a set of behavioral expectations that is enforced upon marginalized people.'

adults and adolescents

The dangerous times of youth under the heavy twisted ideals of society, may they not swallow up your mischief, passion, adventurous beauty as you resist the inevitable manhood. The hungry boys need brothers as the watchful, thoughtful men need their compatriots.
