Summary
The web content discusses the theme of resistance through the act of showing up, despite facing harassment, silencing, and unfair treatment, and invites participation in a writing prompt on the subject.
Abstract
The website features a poem titled "showing up," which emphasizes the power of presence as an act of resistance against ongoing harassment, silencing, and unfair treatment. It underscores the message that by continuing to show up, individuals assert their right to belong and be recognized. The content also includes a blockquote that tags various individuals, inviting them to engage with the prompt on resistance and to share their own perspectives by tagging others, with no specified deadline for participation. Additionally, the website highlights other related works by the author, including poems where every word contains the letter "e" and a tiny poem about bringing the spring inside, suggesting a broader theme of creativity and resilience in the face of adversity.
Opinions

by showing up we are showing them that we belong here just as much.
