Palestine Update: Day 8 — and my final update as I head home this evening. During our time we just got a glimpse of what it means to have your life and movement controlled with systematic cruelty. But Palestinians, every day endure violent, cruel, and legal control over their movement, sense of security, and free expression. As I head home and prepare to ease back into life, what's next? Sure, I could feel good about my advocacy, def more than many, far less than others. I could also hide behind the veil of "it's complicated" and remain silent. Or worse, keep doing the political, ethical, and spiritual gymnastics in my soul that some justified the 10 of thousands of humans killed, culture and history being bombed away, and millions more at the risk of famine, disease, and death. There is already going to be generation upon generation of trauma that needs to be dealt with, but that can't even begin until there is a ceasefire, until the Palestinian people are released from the bonds of apartheid, the world holds accountable the government of Israel for what it has done, and honestly a repentance from our own government. So what's next? As I go back to live my regular life, my focus will be broadened to the many things that are important to me. Nevertheless, the genocide continues so MY role, as an American whose taxes have gone to support and fund the acts of Israel is to push my leaders, my government and the people around me to acknowledge what is happening in order to change public opinion and eventually change the position of those in power. That is the least any of us can do for the people of Palestine. I hope you will join me. Thanks for joining me on this trip. Peace. Be sure to check out my other updates from the trip.
