You're not as progressive as you think you are if you think this.

There is an impulse in moments like this to appeal to self-interest. To say: These horrors you are allowing to happen, they will come to your doorstep one day; to repeat the famous phrase about who they came for first and who they'll come for next. But this appeal cannot, in matter of fact, work. If the people well served by a system that condones such butchery ever truly believed the same butchery could one day be inflicted on them, they'd tear the system down tomorrow. And anyway, by the time such a thing happens, the rest of us will already be dead.
No, there is no terrible thing coming for you in some distant future, but know that a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience.
Who cares if diplomatic expediency prefers you shrug away the sight of dismembered children? Who cares if great distance from the bloodstained middle allows obliviousness. Forget pity, forget even the dead if you must, but at least fight against the theft of your soul.

It's a shame they make the process so onerous. And I often feel like you have to prove "need" in ways that are somewhat degrading. I am moving away from grants soon bc after so many years, it's exhausting.

I'm sure there will be lawsuits of what's happening today that Canada loses. And eventually maybe a new TRCC. And ppl will wonder how it's still happening.

I always hear ppl say, "it's in the past, move on," but these things are very much still happening. The starlight tours, forced sterilizations, apprehensions of children at birth from new mothers... it's very much ongoing. And the TRCC only came out of lawsuits.

I'm a grant writer for Indigenous communities, myself as well. I hope the community gets it, too! Food and land based projects always make me happy.
