After 11 weeks with my family in Florida, I’m of

After 11 weeks with my family in Florida, I’m officially back in Seattle. 8 of those weeks were spent without my husband as he needed to be back in Seattle for work things. This was tough for both of us, and were so happy to be back home together 💕
I feel like I returned to Seattle as an entirely new person. I have adopted several new routines: reading the Bible daily, getting all dressed up just because, signing petitions and emailing gov’t officials, and I’m even becoming a morning person (😱who am I)
Many exciting things coming for the Zimays in the next year - we’re excited to keep planning our life!

OPE I’m 30 (and flirty and thriving, obviously)
What a blessing this has been to be able to spend this birthday with my husband and my parents💕
This birthday feels a lot different than the last. Not because I’m entering a new decade (😫) or in quarantine, but because I am using this as a milestone to make a commitment to uphold the promises from my last few posts. I will do better and be a better ally to all who need one, for the next 30 years and beyond 💕
Visit the link in my bio for resources to support justice for Elijah McClain, and please visit my stories or DM me if you would like to donate to the Black Trans Advocacy Coalition - my bday fundraiser this year💕
Thank you for all of the bday wishes, surprises, corgi GIFs, and sweet treats today! Love y’all!

I haven’t been posting because I have been readi

I haven’t been posting because I have been reading, watching, signing, conversing, and checking my own privileges, beliefs, and knowledge over the last month. I felt that I shouldn’t post until I felt educated enough on how deeply rooted racism is within this country, the policies, the leadership, law enforcement, corporations, and so much more. I realized, though, I will never feel fully prepared or educated enough to speak confidentially about the full extent of racism in this country and my ignorance or lack of knowledge in itself is a privilege. @ohhappydani said, “Perfection is not a prerequisite to participation”. I will make mistakes, but I want to keep showing up.
I have been researching things I was never taught in school and sharing what I learn with those around me. I’m writing emails to government officials, something I had never done before now. I have been watching documentaries and watching and reading content from many amazing Black content creators: @ohhappydani, @venitaaspen, and @sophiegold to name a few.
This last month has shown me just how much of a bubble I have lived in. It really pains me. Tomorrow I turn 30 and I want to spend my next 30 years, and beyond, continuing my education, conversations, speaking out against racism, and fighting for the Black community.
I promise I will do better. #BlackLivesMatter

I have been compiling my thoughts, writing and rewriting this over the last few days. I have been struggling with what to say. Normally, I am terrified of hurting or offending someone; anyone. I usually stay silent on social media on difficult issues to keep from hurting anyone but I now realize that silence does far more damage than speaking out. I can’t be silent anymore. My heart aches. My heart aches for my dear friends and all members of the black community who experience this fear every day of their lives.
I am not as educated as I should be and that is on me. I want to do better and I want to be better.
I feel helpless and that nothing I can do is enough, but I know that’s not true. Right now I have a voice. I recognize I have been privileged with a life without the fear of being judged or persecuted due to my race and I have the ability use that to help lift and defend. “I understand that I will never understand, but I will stand with you.”
@ohhappydani wrote “In so many areas of life, we have present privileges that are inherent or earned. Couldn’t it be said that we’ve also been given a present duty to use those privileges to serve our neighbors? The marginalized and oppressed? The overlooked and forgotten? How do we fulfill this call?
We amplify the voices of those who go unheard. We stand in the gap for the tired and worn. We draw a line in the sand and say “from here on, no more.” And we do it for as long as our lives last.”
I am realizing that our voices not only impact those we are fighting against, but matter so much to those we are fighting for.
I have signed petitions, I have donated, but most importantly I will no longer just be a silent ally; I will speak up.
“Let our hearts break for what breaks His”(@ohhappydani)
