this is not a war we are going through.<\/p>\n
this is a non violent protest<\/p>\n
a resistance.<\/p>\n
our bodies are on the line, not all of us, but some of us especially<\/p>\n
collectively<\/p>\n
those not on the front lines must pass them badly needed supplies<\/p>\n
must modify our own behavior to protect them<\/p>\n
we have been asked to sit patiently<\/p>\n
linking psychoenergetic arms<\/p>\n
waiting for hours, for days.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
real actions are non violent:<\/p>\n
nurses and doctors fighting sleeplessly to save lives<\/p>\n
and scientists working tirelessly to find a vaccine<\/p>\n
grocery store workers, bus drivers, trash collectors–and others<\/p>\n
are maintaining the skeleton of our infrastructures<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
it is the language of the protest which should be on our lips<\/p>\n
affinity groups who are directly accountable to each other<\/p>\n
affinity groups, who are not necessarily family members.<\/p>\n
sharing homes and spaces turned into homes<\/p>\n
or bound by digital intimacies<\/p>\n
thinking in terms of social solidarity<\/p>\n
helping others who are more in need<\/p>\n
putting the sociological imagination ahead<\/p>\n
of what we may directly feel, see or experience<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
we have to look out for each other<\/p>\n
not because we are being attacked with bombs and guns<\/p>\n
and not because there is an enemy who can be destroyed<\/p>\n
viruses will never be completely destroyed<\/p>\n
and destruction is not the goal of a vaccine<\/p>\n
coexistence is<\/p>\n
immunization is<\/p>\n
resilience is<\/p>\n
resistance is<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
