Notes to myself

LANDBACK Friends

This morning I’m seeking guidance for a way to discuss the concepts of, and my experiences with Mutual Aid in preparation for a discussion about that with my Quaker meeting.

Quakers have a long tradition of prayerfully reflecting upon a series of questions, we call queries, to facilitate our discussions of topics like education, social and economic justice, peace and nonviolence. You can see these queries here: Advices and Queries.

The brilliance of using questions stimulates each of us to engage with the topic, whether we speak aloud about our reflections or not. To facilitate reflection and prayer rather than being lectured to.

Agolden shovel poemby ben Alexander of ‘The Skeptic’s Kaddish’

(inblank verse)

Temperature past the versing point, they
melted into glowing lava and were
blown with force through revelation's cinder

in their luminous core. Only then, by
