Quentin's actions

Responding to Systemic Violence

Reduce Single-Use Disposables

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. To reduce the landfill space needed for my lifestyle, I will not use single-use items this week (i.e. plastic straws, plastic cutlery, plastic water bottles, disposable coffee cups, and plastic bags).

COMPLETED
ONE-TIME ACTION

Justice for the Whole Community

Do Nature Activities

I will engage in nature-based activities alone, or with my friends or family, for 60 minute(s) this week. (This can be anything from going on a walk or hike, to noticing the leaves changing color, to reading a book with nature themes.)

Recognize Manipulative Communication Tactics

This week, I will spend 60 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.
