Dear Friends, Family, Revolutionaries, & the Uninitiated,
What the hell is an ally? Not when inside the tense and volatile spaces of war rooms staging the violent affairs of death and mayhem, but when asking to be seen as more than a stigma, label, object, or more importantly “other”! We struggle so often trying to find the right way to describe, define and detail the ways we hope someone can be an ally to us, that we forget what it means to ally ourselves with the interest of others first. In a world that is continuously spreading information to make us feel ever more isolated and divided, how can we ensure that when someone reaches out they know; we got them.
Knowing the effects of art presented to individuals, especially those in underserved communities; or just a bite to eat for our unhomed population. These two firile sols are consistently finding ways to extend their reach and ingratiate more members of the community under the warmth of their loving heart.
Sarah Spinks of Backfence Society Inc. and Heather aka DJ WildBlooms- Fallbrook Mutual Aid… mother, friend, shoulder, wife, intellect,... many words adhere to them and they explain how we can become better not just allies but co-conspirators.
The best way forward is to become better versed in the cultures of others, the struggles they go through, and the heart it takes to exist in “separate but equal spaces”.
