Like many of you, I feel somewhat in limbo. I’m not old enough to qualify to get the vaccine just yet, and I’m not considered an essential worker either. So I’m left wondering just when I’ll get my turn at bat. At least I thought so until I read this bit of new news.

This post from sister publication Elemental raises the point that your turn might come sooner than expected. And the best way to guarantee that you’re ready is to take matters into your own hands as much as possible. Remember: you are your own best advocate. This especially holds true for those of us who come from underserved black and brown communities.

The checklist included in this piece is thorough and empowering — which is that much more meaningful during a time when so much of what we see is not. Read on, and let us know what you think about the suggestions provided.
