Performative Inclusivity

A poem on diversity, equity, and inclusion

Health Justice

looks like

empathetic listening,

providing need-based assistance,

Equity. Its much more

than what Abusers (like You)

are comfortable with,

are willing

to allow. For starters,

You’ll need to help

lift us up, rather than

trying to deflect, mitigate

the painful reality

of why we’re down.
