On the way to make noise for DC to hear, I imagined bridging solidarity to all illegal occupations. We took it from Palestine, across the globe, and everyone had a role. Mine was in calling to action, but my invisibility was okay. The disrupters were loud at the front, protecting others behind them. I heard chanting, culture, chatter, and I saw the sweat, the drive that drilled people to be there. More and more will show up in these times, and we protect us, we are better together. There will not be singular revolutionaries; it is the movement in masses of people which becomes revolution.
I felt at peace and I fell asleep knowing this reality will be true; we will witness a free Palestine.
hope. hope is a discipline, or else we cannot envision a more just and beautiful future. hope is what drove our ancestors to fight. hope is essential to how we show up.
