Hello all,
This week we are celebrating our allies.
The men, women, non-binary folks, bosses, coworkers, family and friends who stand up for us and lift us when we need it.
No Matter What You Call Them, Allies Are Important
As we approach the end of our fall semesters it's common to start attending celebrations of student achievement, retirement gatherings and other special occasions to mark the close of a semester.
And that got me thinking about all the effort it takes for a student to complete a semester and for a faculty member/college employee to complete a career...and it takes allies! So many allies!
Allies that come through for us on one big important occasion, allies in everyday life, allies we don't even see working on our behalf, and allies that we get to know and thank.
Please take a moment to remember your allies, and thank them if you can.
Finally, for your listening and dancing pleasure- one of my favorites, celebrating freedom from oppression, harassment, limits, and pain.
The music is exhilarating and the lyrics are profound. Here is an ally- musically rejoicing in someone's liberation and the new potential that awaits.
So, crank it up!
All the best,
Holly
