Coming from my own Experience laughing, the most important and powerful language is speaking up for those who get looked over like they are invisible. It\u2019s important to stand up for what\u2019s right, especially when you have the power to do so. This language is a language I\u2019m well aware of. I am the minority, my life is rooted from being a minority. I\u2019m a Black Woman living in America, I am the minority. Yes, I\u2019m a part of the minority, and yes, I will continue to speak up for those who might be identical to my status, but don\u2019t have the self empowerment I have. I stand with the minority and I speak for the minority.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Ali could be taking about a number of emotions we all share as human beings with a conscious. Pain and love being the emotion that can make us or break us. Playing with those emotions, you will always take a gamble. We can\u2019t explain what love is, but know how we want to feel. Expressing love can lead to rejection, due to why people don\u2019t wear their hearts on their sleeve.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7850,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"portfolio_post_id":0,"portfolio_citation":"","portfolio_annotation":"","openlab_post_visibility":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2147","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-conversation-5","7":"czr-hentry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7850"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2147"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2147\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2148,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2147\/revisions\/2148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/your-eng101-fall23\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
