Put that moment on an intersection of Feeling & Noun:
Connection & Food
The Story Plot
Where Are You?
I’m happily on my easy chair, my chihuahua in my lap
Why Are You There?
We made Chili for our group coming back from the protests in Grand Rapids
What Happened in This Moment?
We had been calling to check on them, a couple had to get bonded out, but they needed respite, and our house was the community soup kitchen, a meal and a room to sleep in if you needed it. And these folks needed a safe place to relax. We were the natural choice
What Changed for you because of this moment?
When we found out that day Richard Spencer who had been the reason for the protests, had quit touring after the problems they gave him, we would have broken out champagne if we were broke asses. We were proud of ourselves and everyone who had been there. A collective scream rose up from all the affinity groups from Michigan to Kentucky. He fucking quit.
Why Does Your Memory Hold On To This Moment?
Because for a while we had each other and because we head each other we had humor, shared strength, endurance and cause.
