Re: Our Time Has Come
@Stephanie, thank you. I did not mean to imply "handouts" or in any way diminish the dignity of the Mexican people. I do understand this aspect culturally. So maybe I failed in communicating my intent clearly. I just feel like the community there has provided us with SO MUCH already, and been so gracious and accommodating to our presence, we could perhaps abstain from putting their health at risk this year while simultaneously investing, somehow, in their ability to thrive until such time as we can be together again. @Bryan, I have no energy left for guilt. I'm here to heal, to repair, and to change the pattern of white behavior in a way that prioritizes gratitude for the Indigenous folks whose investment in my life has made my life worth living.
