Belonging without othering provides the overarching framework and invitation: 1. Name the pain: help people feel heard and seen 2. Name the system: support people in making sense of their experience 3. Name the “us”, and invite agency: an inclusive invitation to everyone — you matter, and your action is essential 4. Practice what we preach: the HOW is the WHAT; we must embody in our campaigns the future we are inviting people into 5. Build power now: we are not waiting for the state to meet our needs #belonging #othering
