    #3 Empathy (COVID-19)

    This week we will be talking about having empathy in regards to the coronavirus (COVID-19). Black Creatives S/O Jacob Guyton IG: @classified_alias Takara Smith Youtube: Takara Breanna IG: @takarabreanna or @takarabreannabeauty People you should FOLLOW: Crutches and Spice : Rude For A Disabled Person (@Imani_Barbarin) Text ITSWALELA to 61474 (@itswalela)  Resources: Brene Brown (Empathy Video)Center for Disease and Control Prevention (CDC)World Health Organization (WHO)Google DocsIMMUNE COMPROMISED PEOPLE IN NEEDWILLING TO HELP IMMUNE COMPROMISED PPL IN NEEDArticles: What the Poor Don’t Need: Financial Literacy (Matt Darling)“This contradiction points to an underlying belief that lower-income Americans don't know how to manage their money as well as the rich do -- when the exact opposite is true. The very nature of poverty means that the poor are often the savviest budgeters of us all. This is borne out of necessity. If you have limited income, the daily tradeoffs you face prompt you to watch your finances more closely.”Poor People Are Financially Literate. They Just Need More Money (Damon Young)“I’m sharing this today because, of the myriad misconceptions of what it is to be poor, the most common is the belief that the main thing keeping people without money is a lack of understanding of how money works. It is also the most violent belief because implied is that if you’re poor, it’s your fault; it’s something you did or didn’t do. It’s God’s punishment for some elusive misdeed. If only you didn’t buy those Js. If only you saved $5 a week. If only you read this book. If only you downloaded that app. If only you didn’t celebrate that birthday. If only you had dinner with Jay-Z.”
