Survival isn't a win; not even close. It's a burden that I’m forced to carry, piece by piece, memory by memory, day after day, one word at a time, something I feel in my chest, my bones, my coffee—a heaviness that never goes away.
It's messy, twisted, something both holy and haunted. I’ve tasted it

Coloniality buries you in detritus. It locks you into the one-notedness of itself and the absolute boundaries that it sets for you. However, you exceed these boundaries constantly. And the part of you that is more than these boundaries notices its enclosures. #DionneBrand #BlackSky

Resharing a short piece I wrote a couple months ago based on some thinking I’ve been doing for the introduction to my dissertation. I share my reflections on researching Indigenous stories as a settler scholar & the necessarily unsettling irresolvable nature of these entanglements.

Gaza has been levelled every year without fail for the 18 years ive been an adult. Every palestinian i speak to or hear is so shocked at what is happening. There’s nothing left to say and yet there is so much to say.
