Palestine 1492: A Report Back - Linda Quiquivix

Descriere Palestine 1492: A Report Back - Linda Quiquivix

\nPalestine 1492 is a report back of what I see from 500 years of the struggle for life in words, maps, and images in the seven cardinal directions and in the spiral that is time.\n \nIn Maya geography, there is east, west, south, and north, and there is also earth and sky. In the middle there is you, a meeting place between the physical, spiritual, emotional, and mental that together make up the social, a meeting place between earth and sky.\n \nEast, the physical, begins this report back by orienting us in a corner of Mother Earth still holding a stubborn insistence on life: Palestine.\n \nWest, the spiritual, helps diagnose an illness of a wounded, imbalanced, and dangerous world imposed globally since 1492.\n \nIn the South, the emotional, Chiapas nourishes our courage from below in a time of World Wars and global rebellions.\n \nIn the North, the mental, we flip the world on its head but not to remain, to help plan our common escape.\n \nThroughout, I share conclusions Palestinians, Zapatistas, Panthers, and jaguars have taught me along this journey: that this world itself is unethical, and that changing it is difficult, even impossible. If after reading you also believe this to be true, may we dismantle this world together and help build a new one from below and in common, together and side by side.\n
