12 step programs have been shown not to work very well. Here are the things that I am doing:

1. I am not allowing myself to normalize a profoundly abnormal political situation.
2. I will not make excuses for inexcusable behavior.
3. I will amplify voices that are not heard as clearly as mine due to intersections of oppression. 
4. I will remember always that civil rights are not negotiable. Not for anyone.
5. I will continue to speak out about injustice, even if it is risky or inconvenient to do so.
6. I will help people every way I can when I see them being oppressed. 
7. I will work to improve understanding among people who are wiling to listen and do the work. 
8. I understand that everyone walks a path to justice and equality at a different pace, and will do my best to help people along the path. 
9. I will not be silent.
10. I will take care of myself as best I can so that I can be here for the long fight ahead.
