For those who are always living in a time of fracture
Description
I feel as though this contribution is necessary to get other contributors/viewers to consider those who are most vulnerable really in any society. Once this shift in thinking is facilitated, then that's when we can truly begin to change as a society and give a seat to those who are most marginalized.

In our capitalist and male dominated society, women are left to be the most vulnerable. When trying to initiate change and while engaging in dialogue, we must consider that womxn of color specifically are the backbone of our society and that they are those who are constantly living in a time of fracture.
