Everything is connected.
We are all fighting the same hundred-faced monster.
The fight has many names.
Free Palestine. Black Lives Matter. Land Back. Pride. Me Too. ACAB. Neurodiversity. Independance Wars. Revolution.
Each and every instance of reclamation of ourselves, our lineage, our relationship to land and to each other is done in the name of resisting the Monster. Robin Wall Kimmerer calls it Windigo Spirit. Many people in my circles call it The System. I like to call it The Machine.
I see this monster as well in the spirit Koh the Face Stealer in Avatar Last Airbender, or in the city of The Capitol in The Hunger Games. This last one is not exactly a monster, but much too appropriate an analogy to let it go.
The Monster makes its way into the therapeutic space, as well.
