Day 35.

Yesterday Sports Illustrated named LeBron James its Sportsperson of the Year. (Yes, person.) Here’s LeBron on the cover, wearing a safety pin on his lapel.

The safety pin has become a symbol of solidarity since the election, a stand against harassment and discrimination. It’s awesome that LeBron is putting it out there.

I wear a safety pin on my lapel too. But I am somewhat smaller than LeBron. I’ve written here before about wanting to be ready to stand up if I see someone being harassed. I’ll admit it – I’m scared that day isn’t far off.

My action for today is to sign up for Bystander Intervention Training.

I found a course that Hollaback! Is offering online! It’s an hour long and they’re offering it multiple times over the next month or so, on a sliding fee scale. Details about that and some in person classes in the NYC area can be found here.

Hope you will join me in finding a class in your area.
