Hello Humans,

A person of color writing here, if that means anything. I said that if that means anything, because every time I go to the Omni I am NOT checking out what color is who, but instead I look for who I can work together with, or share ideas with, or socialize with, etc..

About a week ago or less I meet a Black Woman at Sudoroom, and we talked very briefly. And, even though it was only for about ten seconds or so, I felt that she means well. Her energy felt in place. I think she was Rannette. 

She wanted to use a phone charger; but were being used and she said will come back later on when the phone be done (or something along the line).I wish I had more positive things to say about about Rannette, but I haven't other opportunities to be in the same area at Omni when she is there.

I have been part of Sudoroom for about two years, and even thought Morgan and I only have had very few short conversations I have never felt threaten by her. 
I have respected her space and she has done the same in return. So, based on my observations I want to share that Morgan cares for our community. 

Outside the Omni I have also observed Morgan in many rallies and marches. I have seen her giving her time, energy, passion, and care while fighting for the communities, specially for people of color and poor.
And that for me, means a lot. And I respect that.

I would like to remind everyone that we all are not perfect and that if from time to time we may do something wrong, but let's not the last thing the have done what will stain us forever. Perhaps when we make a mistake is when our comrade needs us the most, and not only when all is happiness. 

Solidarity is more than a word. Let's not get divided. 

I hope this situation be resolved in the good of Rannette and Morgan; and for the good of the community; one leaving or both leaving I will consider it a lost. 


Sincerely,

Daniel
