Dawn's Blog: A place for Open Minds, Revolutionary Thinking, and Real Talk, all B.S. aside. It's time to be a Voice, not an Echo. You must Speak your Truth even if your voice shakes…
There are seasons in life when adversity seems to know your address. Not just one hard thing. Not just a bad week. I’m talking about the kind of season where obstacle after obstacle shows up uninvited and overstays its welcome. The kind that leaves you tired in ways sleep can’t fix. And if we’re being …
Let’s be clear—Lesbian Visibility Week isn’t about suddenly showing up. We’ve been here. We’ve been loving, leading, building, resisting, nurturing, and creating space long before anyone thought to give it a hashtag. But visibility? That’s a different conversation. Visibility is about being seen accurately. Not watered down. Not misunderstood. Not erased. Not squeezed into narratives …

Let’s just go ahead and say it: The political climate right now?Outrageous. Stressful. Unpredictable. A lot.

I mean really. Somewhere along the way, “supporting women” turned into an Olympic sport of side-eyes. If we’re being honest …
Why Representation Matters (Yes, Even When We’re Tired 😅) Let’s start with the obvious: representation isn’t about checking a diversity box or adding a cute rainbow to the flyer. It’s about survival. It’s about visibility. It’s about walking into a room and not feeling like you accidentally RSVP’d to the wrong century. Representation for Black …

I don't want to give this ignorant individual more time, energy, and attention than he obviously wants, but I would be remiss if I didn't use my platform and voice to speak out about the offensive, racist and dangerous rhetoric that this person has been spewing. This JW Lucas who I have just now heard …
Who would have thought this is the kind of 2020 we would be experiencing? Most of us were so ready to be done with 2019 that we had no idea what we were in for. I suppose we should've been careful with what we wished for! The Universe definitely gave no signs to point to …
We're living in such crazy times, so many of us are struggling, living day to day, some are barely hanging on, others are just walking through life existing but not truly living. It seems like every time I turn around, someone has gone off the deep end, purchased some guns and gone on a murdering …
