Do “we” have Freedom..???.. or just you?

Writer: mikellepoulsonmikellepoulson

All slides, especially the last slide, is 100% applicable to ALL relationships including the one with our country, our government, from within to without and YES our friends, sig others, inner relationship to freedom is a reflection of the outer AND sometimes it’s not broken IN you anymore but you haven’t brought it fully without & all around you:

In your closest relationships

To your furthest from your mind & farthest from your home bc

It’s ALL relation

What we allow each moment

what we are not calling out, putting a stop to (sometimes bc we are literally facing death, destruction & retaliations that will lead to it if we do).

So

What do we do?


I don’t have big answers

But I do have small ones.

Please have the hard-ass conversations w your racist uncle,

your misogynistic friend,

your homophobic coworker,

your zealot dangerously dogmatic neighbor, AND definitely keep searching for the fear in you that keeps you in comfort privilege over freedom for all.


I’m not saying privilege is bad, shit I’m in it,

I’m not saying resting or regulating yourself isn’t necessary, shit I teach it,

It’s all ok & PART OF freedom

&

So is action (see slide #8 ;) it’s like that.


So please, 1 small thing daily to support a minority is a good start.

Then when you have capacity to take on the hoards plz, don’t let your comfort or fear of being burned at the stake or called crazy keep you quiet, complicit or calm when wiling out is the sane answer sometimes in this insane society.


(& no, if you’re facing harm beyond your capacity aka a true beheading or trauma please don’t hurt yourself trying to save others but do please take risks bc revolutions call for courage & bravery takes fear so lessgoooo!)


PS I’m grateful we escaped tyranny so we could build something beautiful here

I’m grateful we built some really amazing things

And

I’m grateful for those who can see how we’ve also recreated the same tyranny we escaped from (or worse) and understand and fuller idea of freedom and are fighting for it in unconventional amazing ways today helping us unlearn the toxic narcissistic capitalism patriarchy abuse etc

Please don’t stop. Thank you for your services. We need you and love you.
