Once again, your voice speaks clearly and correctly! I am so proud of this work you are doing to help us all understand our connections. I have, quite literally, said the same thing you have about what stealing work does to marginalized groups. I would like to hand this article to every person connected with the group that took my work, the research, the design, my words verbatim... and shopped them to the public. I know however they would fall squarely on deaf ears. This article gave me new strength, and reminded me why I do the work I do. I cannot thank you enough for helping to give your community words and wings to literally help fly us past the bs and keep doing the work.
Thank you Michelle. I realize we cannot keep going like this, pretending others aren't giving our ideas wings. If we're interested in making sustainable art, this is arguably the first step. Some days I'm so tired but this one flew off my fingers like water.
