I would put myself in the "active" category. I am learning/ growing, having tough conversations, and sometimes advocating. That said, I have a long way to go to reach "advocate" level. I don't often call out friends/ family on a deep level, not wanting to hurt the relationship (even though the relationship is already damaged now that I see them as racist/ implicit). I also don't really go out of my way yet. I haven't been to a protest, I don't make efforts to buy from black businesses, and I haven't written to political leaders. To go from active to advocate, I know I need to really step up my game and put in the work, not just talk about injustice.
