A Glutton for Gatherings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I just returned from the Turtle Island Bioregional Congress in Vernonia, Oregon. I, along with a devoted team of organizers, had been preparing for this 5 night event for many months, with weekly and sometimes twice a week Zoom discussions. The process was mostly invigorating, and the event itself was a breathtaking mix of inspiration, overstimulation, and total exhaustion. I will be metabolizing the experience for a while, especially since I take off for another gathering today. I learned sever

Doikayt is a Yiddish word that means “Hereness.” I wrote about this slogan created by the Jewish Labor Movement (the Bund) in a previous post, but I’m bringing this word back today for a few reasons. This term was coined to remind the movement to root where they had been living for a thousand years while building solidarity with others.

Concentration Camp Foot Massages (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes, when I hear the heinous members of our current oligarchy lie and bluster, I can laugh it off, and make jokes about how we’ll all be giving each other foot massages in the camps after they round us up. BUT today a report from Democracy Now was like a gut punch. That the so-called legal system is now going to go after anyone critical of the current white suprematist and authoritarian government has stirred up some serious epigenetic trauma (my dad was a blacklisted scientist during the
