AWAKENING TO PALLAS ATHENE

For thousands of years we have understood that a woman’s intuition is unparalleled knowledge.

Athena is first and foremost a protectress. The kind of protection with which she is imbued is knowledge that stems from a deep well of intuition. We see this in the metaphor of her springing from the crown of Zeus’s head (knowledge). Previous to this birth, she had to emerge from the womb of her mother(intuition), swallowed by the records of the patriarchal order, cast away and hidden in Zeus’s belly.

YOU CAN'T RUSH REPAIR

You can’t use a supremacist process to dismantle white supremacy.

Supremacist processes urge instant fixes and perpetuate erasure and trauma because they don’t allow the time and space required by deep healing. We are conditioned to see success through a supremacist lens. Losing this lens is paramount to anti-racist work.

NOT ALL IN THIS TOGETHER

People in panic are superficially, perhaps even falsely, preaching togetherness, seeking the reaction of their audiences or worse, the purchase of goods and services. “Togetherness” has become another healing buzzword on which to capitalize.
