Stay Curious, Stand Brave & Smash The Kyriarchy

Choose Your Adventure

This October we’re exploring and accepting loss, pain, and death.

Give your kids the tools they need for proactive mental health care, and they’ll learn not just to survive pain, but to grow stronger, kinder, and more compassionate through hardship.

Remember that everything here – I made this for you. Cause you are important and you deserve safety, health, and support in the work you do.

Take this next 15 seconds and stop thinking about everyone else who needs your help. Accept that you also are an important person who deserves care and keeping.

Stick around. I like you. You deserve good things.

With you,

Ashia R.

Tell Congress: Cosponsor Ceasefire NOW Resolution

More than 1,030 children like ours have already been killed by Israeli bombs this week. The new siege is preventing all water, electricity, medicine, fuel and food from getting into Gaza. Hospitals have been bombed and others are struggling without water or electricity. People are already dying.

I appeal to you – with the greatest urgency – to cosponsor this resolution for an immediate ceasefire.

Ban Torture of
Disabled Children

Electric shock punishments are illegal for use against neurotypical children, pets, and zoo animals. But this practice is still legal (and actively used) against children and adults with intellectual disabilities at the Judge Rotenburg Center.

I’m an Autistic, multiracial (Chinese/Irish) 2nd-generation settler raising two children alongside my partner on the homelands of the Wampanoag and Massachusett people. My goal with Raising Luminaries is to collaborate with families and educators in raising the next generation of kind & courageous leaders, so we can all smash the kyriarchy together.
