#39 Victor Lee Lewis: Liberation is a Nonlinear Process

That many esteemed institutions and structures that we deeply believe in are counterfeit to what we really want and need.

That humanity and life can’t bear another century of white supremacy, patriarchy, and Western enlightenment-based education.

That “we need to unpack and detox our notions of freedom and liberty”, which has typically been construed in racial terms in the United States of America.

That liberation is a nonlinear process and much has changed, even if progress isn’t always obvious.

That this is an infinite game. “We're not trying to win it, we're not trying to complete it. We're in an infinite game that we want to keep going. I'm not trying to live forever. I'm trying to see that life lives forever.”

That “as things fall apart, opening our hearts as well as our minds, and taking courage may yet carry us through.”
