Welcome to the first episode of Children Deserve Better. The world feels heavy right now—children’s rights are under attack, policies are being designed to harm marginalized communities, and the sheer amount of injustice can make it feel impossible to know where to start.
That feeling of overwhelm? It’s by design. The people in power want us too tired to fight back. But here’s the truth: we are not powerless. We are not alone. And we can't back down.
In this episode, Dr. Jasmine Moses breaks down what’s happening, why it matters, and how we can take meaningful action. Drawing from the wisdom of Black feminist thinkers, she reminds us that justice is love in action, that small steps still create impact, and that sustaining ourselves in this work is just as important as the work itself. This is more than a conversation—it’s a call to action.
Key Takeaways:
- The systems harming us are intentional, but so is our resistance.
- Justice is an act of love—fighting for children’s rights is a form of deep care.
- We don’t have to do everything, but we must do something—focus on 2-3 areas where you can make an impact.
- Self-preservation is part of the work; we cannot pour from an empty cup.
- Revolution is ongoing—it’s not a one-time event, but a commitment to sustained action.
