Throughout four thematic cycles, starting in September 2023, we were crossed by fire, we burned and started again, we entered the humus, we rested in utopias, we nourished desires, we sowed revolutions.
And here We are, once again, on the brink of the abyss, reality slips through our fingers, the trivialization of evil continues. Here we are, between silence and hope.
Here we are, feet firmly on the ground, establishing the path of our ancestors.
We go back to the beginning and repeat. Is it possible to produce change in a collapsing structure?
In this conversation that closes the cycle of actions that began in September 2023, we are inspired by practices of radical solidarity as a form of resistance against erasure, state violence and injustice epistemic.
