The Love Is All Around Us. I

I Think Culture Is Where Things Change In Us Deeply. But Right Now, I Think That People Are Very Traumatised. They Are Very Scared. Having Grown Up In A House With A Perpetrator Who Was Violent Every Day And Terrorising Every Day, I Feel Like That This Country Is Suddenly Very Much Like The House And The Family I Grew Up In. Every Day We Are Glued To Our Phones, Glued To Our Television; "what Is This Psychopath Going To Do Next? How Will He Embarrass Us? Who Will He Bully Or Hurt Or Humiliate Today? It's So Easy To Get Locked Into A Syndrome Where The Perpetrator Is Ruling Your Life.

You Have To Give To The World The Thing That You Want The Most, In Order To Fix The Broken Parts Inside You.

In America, We Have To Really Be Working On Two Fronts Right Now. Immediately, We Have To Be Rising In Resistance And Protecting Our Muslim Brothers And Sisters [and] Every Marginalized Person Under Threat And Siege. At The Same Time, We Have To Be Planning And Envisioning Where We're Going. How We Build Moments And Movements, How We Come Up With The Vision We Want Of A Progressive Left - That's What Comes In After.

The Love Is All Around Us. I Made A Life Of Love.

Writing And Giving Voice To What I Am Feeling Makes Me Happy. And Supporting People In Finding Their Voice, Passion, Outrage And Resistance. There Is Nothing Better Than That.
