In this episode of “The Step” by POPSUGAR, presented by SOREL footwear, bestselling author Luvvie Ajayi Jones talks with Alicia Garza, who is one of the founding members of the Black Lives Matter movement, alongside Opal Tometi and Patrisse Cullors. It’s been seven years since Alicia first wrote the Facebook post that would inspire a hashtag, then a movement, and here, she discusses how movements take serious time, and how having thick skin, but a soft heart makes it easier. From how she sees herself as an organizer, rather than activist, to the lessons she’s still learning, to her love of tequila and workouts that drive emotion, Alicia and Luvvie cover it all.
