Stop acting so fucking wounded. The only person that can pick you up, push back your shoulders, wipe the tears, mend the broken bones and get you out of your slump is you. Now go and live, there is so much to be happy about.

One evening, an old Cherokee tells his grandson that inside all people, a battle goes on between two wolves. One wolf is negativity: anger, sadness, stress, contempt, disgust, fear, embarrassment, guilt, shame, and hate. The other is positivity: joy, gratitude, serenity, interest, hope, pride, amusement, inspiration, awe, and above all, love. The grandson thinks about this for a minute, then asks his grandfather, “Well, which wolf wins?” The grandfather replies, “The one you feed.”

Gather, 2014 By Alice Walker

It is still hard to believe that millions of us saw Eric Garner die. He died with what looked like a half dozen heavily clad policemen standing on his body, twisting and crushing him especially his head and neck. He was a big man, too.  They must have felt like clumsy midgets as they dragged him down. Watching the video, I was reminded of the first lynching I, quite unintentionally, learned about: it happened in my tiny lumber mill  town before the cows were brought in and young white girls on ornate floats became dairy queens. A big man too, whom my parents knew, he was attacked also by a mob of white men (in white robes and hoods) and battered to death by their two by fours. I must have been a toddler overhearing my parents talk and mystified by pieces of something called “two by fours.” Later, building a house,  i would encounter the weight, the heaviness, of this varying length of wood, and begin to understand. What is the hatred of the big black man or the small black man or the medium sized black man the brown man or the red man in all his sizes that drives the white lynch mob mentality? I always thought it was envy: of the sheer courage to survive and ceaselessly resist conformity enough to sing and dance or orate, or say in so many outlandish ways: You’re not the boss of me! Think how many black men said that: “Cracker,* you’re not the boss of me;”  even enslaved.  Think of how the legal lynch mob  so long ago tore Nat Turner’s body in quarters skinned him  and made “money purses” from his “hide.” Who are these beings? Now we are beginning to ask  the crucial question. If it is natural to be black and red or brown and if it is beautiful to resist oppression and if it is gorgeous to be of color and walking around free, then where does the problem lie? Who are these people that kill our children in the night? Murder our brothers in broad daylight? Refuse to see themselves in us as we have strained, over centuries,  to see ourselves in them? Perhaps we are more different than we thought. And does this scare us? And what of, for instance, those among us who collude? Gather. Come see what stillness lies now in the people’s broken hearts. It is the quiet force of comprehension, of realization of the meaning of our ancient and perfect contrariness; of what must now be understood and done to honor and cherish ourselves: no matter who today’s “bosses” may be. Our passion and love for ourselves that must at last unite and free us.  As we put our sacrificed beloveds to rest in our profound and ample caring: broad, ever moving, and holy, as the sea.

My own personal view is that vaccines are unsafe and worthless. I will not allow myself to be vaccinated again. …..The bottom line is that infectious diseases are least likely to affect (and to kill) those who have healthy immune systems. I no longer believe that vaccines have any role to play in the protection of the community or the individual. Vaccines may be profitable but, in my view, they are neither safe nor effective. I prefer to put my trust in building up my immune system.
