A spell for returning the curse of white supremacy
Alexandra (“ahlay”) Blakely
Calling upon the abolitionist ancestors!
Be with us as we grieve the ways in which white supremacy impacts our Black and Brown and Indigenous siblings, the ways in which white supremacy impacts our white bodies, the ways in which we have internalized white supremacy and replicated it, the ways we have destroyed or lost our very own songs, our stories, our dances, our connection to this wild Earth, to each other, to the village, to our children, to our elders, to you – ancestors! We are here because a collective trauma requires a collective response.
We call upon the heretics, witches, healers and medicine wheelers. We call upon the ancestors who were organizers, who were rebellious, who broke laws that were morally unethical, who hid fugitives who were ostracized by society.
Be with us now.
Returning the curse of white supremacy.
Returning the curse of white supremacy.
Returning the curse of white supremacy.
