00:00 >> I think if you're in a position of power, I think equity requires sacrifice.
00:07 I don't think a lot of people want to give up something to be equitable.
00:12 And so I think if you have power, it's leveraging that, leveraging your relationships, mentioning
00:17 someone's name when you don't think someone is thinking about them, bringing someone with
00:22 you to an event they wouldn't have had exposure to.
00:26 And if you don't have power, I think it's about staying grounded in the issues that
00:30 are happening within our communities so that when you do eventually get power, you have
00:35 a perspective that you're being more generous.
00:38 Because I think a lot of times when people get power, that generosity kind of goes away
00:41 sometimes.
00:42 And I think it's important to kind of stay grounded in that.
