I'm a Social Justice Educator and Aspiring Humanitarian who is interested in conflict resolution, improving intergroup relations, and building more equitable and inclusive communities. "Notes from an Aspiring Humanitarian" is my blog, where I write about issues of diversity, inclusion, equity, and social justice. By exploring social identities through written word, film & video, and other forms of media, I hope to continue to expand and enrich conversations about social issues that face our society, and to find ways to take social action while encouraging others to do so as well in their own ways.

I like this photo because I think it does a good job of illustrating the hypocrisy of folks who seem so committed to fighting for “life”, yet are so opposed and uncommitted to supporting programs and initiatives that support life after babies are born. It’s such a blatant contradiction.
