Here at Good Good Good, we share real, messy hope. Not feel good news, but real good news. We look for hopeful stories among the doom and gloom headlines and highlight them so you can know the world isn’t all bad. Celebrating good news wasn’t born out of an attempt to avoid the reality of the world’s greatest pains. In fact, we advocate for a rooted-in-reality, informed point of view. We search for the helpers and hopeful stories happening right within the pain — and we find them. We’ve found that in seeking good news, we’ve been able to come out of sulking and hopelessness and take action to change the world for the better. Some news is scary and dark. There is very real pain in the world. But the story doesn’t end there. It never does. We often point to a quote from Fred Rogers, the beloved children’s TV host. He said that when he was young and would see scary things in the news, his mother would tell him: “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” That’s what we do here at Good Good Good: look for the helpers. For this issue, we looked for people doing good work in dark places, people who generously and selflessly give of themselves to find creative solutions to problems in their communities and around the globe through their organizing, advocacy, and innovation. The people you see profiled in this issue are changing the world for the better. This list barely scratches the surface of all the helpers from 2020. We could fill pages and pages of people who made a difference last year, but we hope this is a reminder of the diversity of ways people can make an impact. We are excited to introduce you to our Good Good Good Helpers of the Year — and hope to feature you as one next year.

Racial Justice Activists 2020 was a year marked by protests against racial injustice, but this work started long, long before 2020. Activists have been fighting for justice before there were cameras, before there were hashtags, before it was cool to pay attention and speak up. If it weren’t for activists, progress would halt, and injustice would remain in the dark. Here’s an example: Breonna Taylor was killed on March 13 by police officers in her home in Louisville, Kentucky. For weeks, her death received very little attention. It took nearly two months for her case to become a national story.
