African American — Justice Chronicles

Mantener las apariencias, afrontar ese exterior duro. No hables, no sientas, no confíes.

Esa voz interior le dijo

Así es cuando vives en el barrio

sundown poulsbo, part 1 - an introduction -- danielle s. Rueb - castillejo

Historians have found that most sundown towns deliberately hid the means by which they became and remained all-white. Apart from oral histories, there are often few archival records that describe precisely how sundown towns excluded Blacks. Laws and policies that enforced racial exclusion have largely disappeared, but de facto sundown towns existed into the 1980s, and some may still be in evidence today.

No hay lugar en la posada; Más que oraciones por las madres de Gaza

The truce ended today. Bombing continues. Violent images flood my nervous system. I make a point to pray. Death is lurking.

A mis compañeros inmigrantes - Rachel Anna Smart

Enviaré mi nariz de regreso a Polonia.

Mis manos de regreso a Inglaterra.

Enviaré parte de mi piel a Alemania y parte de mi cabello a Escocia.

Pero mi corazón... lo guardaré en Nəxʷq̓iyt.

To my fellow immigrants. - Rachel Anna Smart

My hands back to England.

I’ll send some of my skin back to Germany and some of my hair back to Scotland.

But my heart... I’ll keep that in Nəxʷq̓iyt.

With all the love and anger of my Seya still flowing in it.

Pertenencia y Comunidad y cómo eso puede llegar a la justicia - Darryl Riley

“Ya tuve suficiente de la propaganda…. Estoy a favor de la verdad, no importa quién la diga. Estoy a favor de la justicia, sin importar quién esté a favor o en contra. Soy un ser humano ante todo y, como tal, estoy para QUIEN y CUALQUIER cosa beneficie a la “comunidad” en su conjunto”. Malcolm X

Belonging and Community and how that can lead to Justice -- Darryl Riley

“I’ve had enough of the propaganda…. I am for truth, no matter who tells it. I’m for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I’m a human being first and foremost, and as such I’m for WHOEVER and WHATEVER benefits “community” as a whole.” Malcolm X

But my heart... I’ll keep that in Nəxʷq̓iyt.
