A day after Daisy Gatson Bates Day, we want to name something clearly: racism isn’t only “history.” It still happens in our world, and it leaves cultural and nervous-system impacts - fear, hypervigilance, shame, silence, avoidance - 𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 when violence is minimized or denied.

Daisy Gatson Bates and the Little Rock Nine remind us that 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘳 starts with 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩: remembering what happened; refusing to white-wash it; and honoring the people who endured it to widen what was possible for everyone.

Today, consider one small act of cultural work:
✅ Learn a piece of Arkansas civil rights history you weren’t taught
✅ Talk with your important people about what courage looks like
✅ Notice where your community still needs protection, advocacy, and accountability

We honor Daisy Gatson Bates not only by celebrating her - but by continuing the work of becoming a world where dignity is not negotiable.

Today is Daisy Gatson Bates Day in Arkansas.

In 1957, nine Black students - now known as the Little Rock Nine - attempted to integrate Little Rock Central High School. They faced violent resistance, threats, and national scrutiny. What’s often left out is 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 much of the organizing and protection happened.

Daisy Gatson Bates’ home in Little Rock became the meeting place, strategy center, and safe haven for the students and their families. It was where plans were made, fears were named, and courage was rebuilt—often under the constant threat of harassment and violence.

That house is now a National Historic Landmark because it represents more than a building. It represents what leadership looks like in the face of danger: a woman opening her home, nurturing community, and refusing to let children face hatred alone.

When we talk about civil rights history, we’re also talking about the importance of safe places - spaces where truth can be spoken and people can breathe again when the world outside is hostile.

Tomorrow is Daisy Gatson Bates Day in Arkansas (observed the third Monday in February).

Daisy Bates was born in Huttig, AR, and her childhood was marked by racial violence that influenced the course of her life and work. As an adult, she and her husband, L.C. Bates, built a Black newspaper in Little Rock called the Arkansas State Press, and used it to tell the truth about segregation and injustice.

Over the next few days, we are sharing why her courage matters - especially for anyone who believes healing includes telling the truth, naming what is wrong, and refusing to accept harm.

Not anti-Valentine's Day.
Just...emotionally seated and observing.

Hi, Barbie. You're not doing it wrong. Guilt often shows up when patterns change. Hang in there.

Boundaries are often misunderstood as rejection. In reality, they help relationships stay honest and sustainable.

January can make one...grumpy. If it's been a lot, you're not alone. Drop a 🫠 if this resonates.
