No I will not apologise for that

Amplify.

Some time ago I was accused of being hard to work with. In this context, it was entirely a gender-based comment.

Given the larger context of the project, it floored me literally.

Wisdom teaches me now that I instead might have turned the comment into a badge of pride.

Yes. I can be hard to work with. Yes, I have something significant to say. Yes, I am a stand for integrity. For justice. For respect. For the voiceless.

And no I will not apologise for that.

And no, I will not be silent, or invisible.

I will not go demurely into that good night.

I will rage, rage, against the attempted killing of my light.

I will rage, rage against the killing of any person’s light.
