I saw this quote from Shannon Craigo-Snell, and it may be helpful to take in:
“One of the tenets of resisting injustice is ‘do not acquiesce in advance.’ I am telling myself that a corollary is ‘do not despair in advance.’ Prepare, yes. Protect, yes. Grieve, yes. But not despair.”
There’s some definite wisdom there.

I have to admit, I took a week long news fast to avoid falling into the pit of despair. I’m easing myself back in by listening to NPR, which isn’t hyperfocused on the future administration.
