I don’t really care what you think about what’s happening in Ferguson. But if you do one thing, I ask that you listen. Listen, not to find a pause when you can respond, refute, or agree. Just listen. Let the stories sink in and recognize that these stories are someone else’s truth. Someone else’s life. Someone else’s sidewalk that maybe you walk down without a care in the world, but they walk down fearing for their safety or their children’s safety. Do your best to listen without judgement or preconceived beliefs. Absorb their stories and allow them to challenge your worldview, and if necessary, change it.

Delightfully Tacky: thoughts on ferguson as a white woman

One of my favorite fashion bloggers also turns out to have some on-point advice for fellow white people.

Dash sits in my parents backyard all day like a statue guarding the yard. Of course she has her supply of tennis balls in case someone is around to throw them for her. ♡
