We come to you this week buoyed by love! We've launched our annual Reparations Season and it's such a joy to feel our community together, reaching out with love to return resources to indigenous communities and - this year - to extend our embrace to displaced people in Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, Ukraine and beyond. We invite you to check out our Reparations Fundraiser and all the delicious prizes! Consider making a donation, or sharing the project wherever you can. And listen, no judgement, make a donation for any reason that works for you! Do it to transmute rage and sorrow! Do it to share on social media and amplify good vibes! Do it to win utterly MAGICAL prizes! Do it to piss off your racist uncle! This week Amy brings a song / poem / incantation by Santee Dakota activist, performance artist, actor, and poet John Trudell. Children Of Earth is a call to remember ourselves as care takers, care givers, beings who can use their thoughts to protect Earth. We are not powerless. Risa comes to this week feeling like she's trying to wrap her entire nervous system around the kids. The kids trapped in Rafah, the kids protesting genocide, the students building encampments and their deep radical rage and hope, around the faculty and local communities coming out to make circles of protection. When it all feels overwhelming, one of the magic songs that helps Risa is Gossip's Standing in the Way of Control https://www.missingwitches.com/reparations-fundraiser-2024/
