Ever since I was a kid, I have absolutely abhorred racism and sexism.

Since before I had the academic lexicon or sociological knowledge to discuss it fully or explain it rationally, I have recognized and despised it viscerally.

Odd, since I occupy the ultimate status of inherent privilege: straight White male.

The Octopus & The Owl

The Octopus - yoga teacher & lover of all creatures. The Owl - father, teacher & gentle justice warrior. Finding love in darkness, together they spread light.
