Community organizer and facilitator Aja Taylor claims that right now might be the apocalypse that we’ve been waiting for. She talks about the Greek roots of the word literally meaning to uncover.
So much has been uncovered in the last year, in the last four years on a collective level.

It makes sense that amidst this uncovering, for so many of us, our capacity to feel, know, and move into possibility are diminished. What would it be like to dream our way through the darkness this winter? Abolitionist author Jackie Wang talks about dreams being the place that racialized capitalism can’t touch. Let’s do more of that dreaming. It is through our bodies that this becomes possible. Our bodies are and can be places of imagination, of resource, of deep aliveness, and of connection.
