I have a whole dissertation (and book I’m trying to finish) on how part of the reason shame is so damaging is so few people elect to bear it so offload it on a few and then pretend it’s their fault for feeling bad. We should feel shame in this moment. Let’s bear it together so we can change things.

Your Daily Affirmation:

I am immobilized by shame for my country on behalf of those who are unable to feel it. I will endeavor to push through.
