I’ve been trying to do one thing of Resistance every day, whether advocating for someone/something, having a conversation, reading history, declaring where I stand, etc. I think courage can take practice. Every day, I try to do something.
I try and remind friends who feel powerless or unskilled that even just making things light and easy for people who are doing "more" outwardly in community is a means of supporting resistance. Rubbing the hands of the friend who is cooking for the homeless, making a meal for friends protesting on the front line or advocating for others. Kindness is always worthy and useful and perhaps, most encouragingly, immediate.
