order to inspire social change and accept others, we need to learn how to accept ourselves
first. The snaps echoed around the room.
He continued on explaining how for years his race has been trying to fight for
equality, yet constantly reinforces their differences. This empowering black male left an
impact on the crowd with his critical viewpoint and inspired acceptance in others.
Tucker next introduced Ashley Canon.
She spoke about the issue of sexism and gender roles in society. I no longer want
to be neglected by society, Ashley said. Her overriding goal was to create a community
of heightened love and join people together. She wanted them to understand that the
restrictions of gender roles and the inequality of sexes is not right and can be stopped.
She suggests educating younger children and confronting those who openly
follow these guidelines set by society.
