We are collectively reaching a point of exhaustion at the amount of tragedy we are facing on a global scale. In these moments, comfort can be found in the words, stories, and music of past resisters and truth-tellers. When we are reminded that there is nothing new under the sun — that many of our ancestors have endured hardship we can’t begin to understand — we realize that survival, and even thriving, is still and always possible when we choose to prioritize our collective well being.
