Media 2070 FINAL - Flipbook - Page 12
And to guide you as you engage with this essay,
we offer this incantation:
our souls are woven
in stories past to future:
may there be healing.
may this work exist as a sibling to everything else
necessary for full, holistic reparations.
may it exist as a relative of writing and movement at the intersections of media, rematriation, decolonization, and everything
else necessary to create a future full of holistic, grounded stories about those of us
who hold generational ancestral harm.
may there be no more
journalism written with
the blood of Black lives.
