El lamento, el arrepentimiento y la oración de Adviento de un pastor blanco… Cyon Edgerton

Hemos elegido la política y el progreso antes que la paz.

Hemos elegido el éxito sobre tu Espíritu.

Hemos buscado poder, posición y privilegios más que su presencia.

Hemos subido a plataformas en lugar de arrodillarnos a vuestros pies.

Hemos colonizado su evangelio y bastardizado su misión.

A white pastor’s lament, repentance, and Advent prayer… Cyon Edgerton

We have chosen politics and progress over peace.

We have chosen success over your Spirit.

We have sought power, position, and privilege more than your presence.

We have climbed onto platforms rather than knelt at your feet.

We have colonized your gospel and bastardized your mission.

That inner voice said to her

Dina Martinez - a story - una historia

My therapist presented to me the Maslow’s hierarchy needs as a way for me to understand where my restlessness originated from, but after listening to indigenous folks, I started imagining it more like a circle instead of a pyramid. Mi terapista me demostro La hirarcia de necesidades por Maslow, para poder entender el origen de mi hipervigilancia e inquietud, pero al escuchar a algunos de líderes indígenas, empecé a imaginarlo como un círculo envés de una pirámide.”

Las escuelas públicas pertenecen a todos, excepto a aquellos que las destruirían - Avery Welkin

The truth is that in American society’s democratic ideal, public schools are for everyone. Even though the reality is that public schools were designed with a narrower focus on serving the white and wealthy, it is very clear now that this is not the goal. Public schools are one of the few spaces, along with public libraries, where American society at all socioeconomic levels, racial/ethnic identities, and abilities are welcome to learn without an expectation of spending money.

No sabía inglés, siempre era el último en aprenderlo todo. Mis padres no tenían el típico trabajo estadounidense. Mis padres no eran abogados, médicos ni maestros, mi papá es paisajista y mi mamá limpiaba casas.

Las Cronicás de la Justicia - porque resistimos

Estoy escribiendo, pidiendo amistad, sabiduría, y participación en resistir la violencia del Sistema. Un Sistema que mantiene y demanda nuestra participación en las injusticias, pero al mismo tiempo témenos que sonreír, y pretender que todo está bien. Y si no participamos, debemos de mover atreves del mismo sistema para ser iguales y sabemos que nunca podemos ser.
