Hey Garrett, thanks so much for this. I'm new to your work but it has become a really important guide for me lately, so I just wanted to leave some words here. I appreciate the ideas for getting started that you shared here. Looking forward to learning and doing some more. Sending you love and light.

Sending love right back Caitlin. I know you've always been so thoughtful about the way you show up politically and so it means a lot that my stuff has been useful.

Hi Garrett, thank you for sharing this. I love your focus on organizing to lead to true structural change. I've tried to rid the term, "the blind leading the blind" from my vocabulary, as it is ableist. We know that in fact people who are blind can be incredible organizers and changemakers. Thank you.

You're right, that was totally ableist. Thank you. I'm going to edit that phrase now-- you're absolutely right I should have been more conscious and intentional in my language.
