A Voice from Iran

“80th story”

First Published: Feb.28.2019

A high school teacher started her class with a story:

school-417612__340

“A couple went on a cruise to spend quality time together.

ship-1578528__340

The ship hit a seamount and instigated a big hole. Water was pouring into the ship uncontrollably. Everyone was rushing towards the lifeboats.

lifeboat-2648721__340

When the couple got closer to the last lifeboat, they realized there was only one space left. The husband jumped into the lifeboat and it left immediately. The wife was devastated as she stared at the lifeboat and shouted: …….”

The teacher paused and said: “What do you think she shouted?”

Many students had different answers.

One said: “She probably said ‘I hate you.’”

love-2754243__340

Others said: “She definitely said ‘I wasted my life with you.’”

– “Thanks for leaving me behind.”

– “Men!”

And more….

The teacher continued: “She shouted ‘take care of our daughter.”

Years passed and that man took…

Thoughtful Thursdays, Stayed on Freedom’s Call page 39, and Learn By Singing

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

     What steps do you think we can take to make our history more  inclusive of all of our stories?

     I started my own walking singing tour company in the belief that song was a powerful way to help make this happen.  Some of what I learned is in my book Stayed on Freedom’s Call (last week was page 38…):

That corner, across from “Meigs Red Barn”, as the Old Pension Office was known, is where this walking tour of about 2.5 hours, begins.

Dolina Loare između Silija na Loari i Šalona, Francuska – The Loire Valley between Sully-sur-Loire and Chalonnes, France

Myrela

Leonardo da Vinči, najveći renesansni genije u oblasti umjetnosti i nauke, umro je 2. juna 1519. godine u 67. godini, u maloj rezidenciji u Kluu. Dvije godine prije toga, na poziv francuskog kralja Fransoa I od Valoa, on je došao u Amboaz, mjesto gdje se nalazio kraljevski dvorac. Leonardo je tako pobjegao iz Italije rastrzane suparništvom između gradova i spletkama na dvorovima, da bi našao mir u zemlji koja je bila na vrhuncu blagostanja. On je u Francuskoj boravio u srcu zemlje, u dolini Loare, koja je u tom razdoblju francuske istorije, bila kulturni, politički i ekonomski centar. Dugačka oko 1.000 kilometara, Loara je najduža francuska rijeka. U njenoj dolini nalazimo svjedočanstva o neolitskim naseljima nastalim još u trećem milenijumu p.n.e. Pošto je Julije Cezar pokorio Gale, tim područjem vladali su Rimljani, a s pojavom hrišćanstva glavni gradovi u regionu (Anže, Burž, Šartr, Orlean i Tur) razvili su se u…

An opportunity for healing

LANDBACK Friends

How do non-native people in this country reconcile the Thanksgiving holiday versus the National Day of Mourning, both occurring on the fourth Thursday of November?

When I try to engage White people about this, they say Thanksgiving is a time to gather with family and be thankful for all the good things in their lives. And don’t want to talk about the many negative consequences for Indigenous peoples that resulted from the arrival of White people.

National Day of Mourning Plaque.jpg

Thanksgiving is a glaring example of White supremacy and privilege. White people can and do refuse to acknowledge the true history. “Repeating the holiday with no acknowledgement of the intolerance in its history feels delusional at best, if not actively perpetuating oppression.”

Searching for ways to write about this, I finally came upon the following blog posts that express my sentiments. The more recent says, “this year (2020), more than ever, healing is on…
