What a gift we Eugeneans have in Ayisha Elliott (“Choose Kindness,” Black Girl from Eugene EW 5/20) with all her super powers. Elliott not only knows the motivation behind what we all think and do, she can even divine who the average “non racist white person” is and what they need to do. For mere mortals as myself such certainty would surely lead to a fall.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
