My birthmom, who died in 2016, visited me in a dream last night. She & I flew in an invisible vehicle over lake & woodland to attend a meditation group I facilitate. We were a bit worried about the wind blowing dirt thru our hair, but it felt good.

It's vitally important that the videos of the killing by ICE remain public & also no individual not directly involved in reporting on or prosecuting a case about the killing has an obligation to witness them. We can all only carry so much, & we can trust each other to hold up their part of the work.
