My close friend and colleague Liz Wesley knows what it’s like to fight for fairness in a profoundly unfair world. She battled her way through the education system as a child only to find herself up against some of the same forces of inequity as a teacher in Philadelphia's highly segregated public school system.
Always a social justice warrior, Liz became even more involved in trying to fight racial segregation in education in the aftermath of the police killing of George Floyd.
But the often lonely struggle took its toll. After working with a therapist and reading the work of Tricia Hersey, author of “Rest is Resistance,” Liz finally decided to give herself some much needed rest.
Liz shares her deeply personal journal toward the realization that she owed herself rest and self-care with the hope that others may benefit from her wisdom.
