Situational medicine

in an effort to spark dialogue, if not coordinate some path to the money and credibility assistance we need to avert various disasters which will affect a lot of things through "one thing leads to another" chain reactions.

We know that this could be a Fountain of Miracles rather than nightmarish 'tragedy of the commons.'

In short, what's practical in providing complex care really needs to be updated from how to get by financially in the "just world", which some people have access to and others don't so much. 

Many people are navigating various levels of proverbial Hell and high water and the water is rising for a lot of people throughout the global population.

As creative survivor and helper care witches, to that end we are using the term situational medicine to encompass the complex creative team work necessary to meet the expressed safety and recovery needs of those most afflicted in our communities, many of whom are experiencing complex, severe intersectional disability.

So,

Are y’all doing situational medicine in some form? Tell us more.

Yes, we are very much working to meet our community’s immediate needs. We also create opportunities daily to share spoons with an eye to culturing credibility, visibility, and liberatory mutual aid structures toward the cessation of human trafficking, consent-based trauma-aware care for its victims, and ultimately a care-based future.

Do you want to collaborate, pitch in or share resources with other ‘outside the box’ and allied care workers ?

What needs does your community have unmet?

Can you help us to further this particularly invisible and suppressed cause?

We are getting good at working on “wicked problems”. It’s a start

A few later notes or lost in my fb thread with Brendan

Are lost

Graphic - revolutionary love project led by Valerie Kaur.

Also can talk about international situation.

Some of my words were imprecise

Yes international / global context / population well-being

I don't really register the word community as having clear meanings

Our Bodies at the Borderlands
“To survive the Borderlands you must live sin fronteras (without borders). Be a crossroads.” - Gloria Anzaldua
Life thrives on diversity. Ecosystems that team with the abundance of life are interdependent, interconnected stands in the web of life. And we live in a relational universe, despite what a culture that preaches our independence and individuality might tell us. Lines of division rooted in historical events and cultural processes have disrupted the ways in which we might otherwise find each other in relationship. Trauma and oppression impede the free flow of our life energy, as they impede the free flow of energy between us. Our dear brother, Bayo Akomolafe, invites us into a disorientation; the loss of the coordinates that tells us about who we ‘are’, who the ‘other’ is, and how the world is. In this disorientation and disruption, we’re invited to the borderlands.
The borderlands represent the place where things meet; we’re opened up to possibility (in quantum physics we might call this the wave-state of things not defined). This is where lines are blurred and fixity in what we think we know is challenged. When it comes to the social systems and historical events that have contributed to trauma & oppression, the borderlands represent an opening; a place of possibility between the seemingly fixed world we believe we know and the not-yet worlds to come.
It’s when the habitual world of what we know is disrupted that we make way for something else to emerge.
In Rooted, we’re embarking on an experience (a process; a project) of conscious and intentional community-building and reworlding (dreaming up and embodying new worlds). This calls upon the cultivation of curiosity, creativity, imagination and our agency, things that are often muted in the experience of trauma and oppression. For this, we need to bring in the body.

Beloved Community
A Journey in Bridging, Building & Belonging
INTEREST FORM
We are living in a time of rupture and renewal, within a portal that has opened radically new pathways and possibilities. As we move from crisis toward recovery, how can we shape the ‘new normal’ we return to in liberating and life-serving ways? How can we respond to the opportunity of this moment and create a culture of reckoning, repair, relationship, and reverence for all Life? 
The Beloved Community Journey is a nine-month virtual series of learning, practice and taking action together to create a world where we all belong and thrive. Participants will engage with some of the leading elders, visionaries, activists & artists of our time; art and soul-filled community gatherings, small group circles & experiential events for going deeper; and curated resources to support your learning and keep you inspired along the way. You can participate at the frequency that works for you, and watch or listen to recordings of live sessions later.
As we move deeper into a decade of repair and renewal, we are building a bridge to the more healed and beautiful world our hearts know is possible.

The Beloved Community Journey especially welcomes & supports the participation of BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, Youth and folks with disabilities. We work to create supportive spaces deeply based in anti-racist, decolonizing, class-aware, and anti-ableist ethics.

BELOVED COMMUNITY: A PURPOSE & PRACTICE
We honor Beloved Community as a purpose that connects us all, one that is rooted in the legacy of Dr. King and the civil rights movement, along with the many efforts working to create an inclusive, interrelated society based on love and justice. 

We honor Beloved Community as a practice that includes the healing and transformation work we do inside ourselves & in community using the power of love, vulnerability, care and connection.

The Three Dimensions of the Great Turning


From an imagined perspective of future generations, we can see how the Great Turning is gaining momentum today, through the choices of countless individuals and groups.  We can see that it is happening simultaneously in three areas or dimensions that are mutually reinforcing. These are:

1) actions to slow the damage to Earth and its beings;
2) analysis and transformation of the foundations of our common life; and
3) a fundamental shift in world-view and values.
Many of us are engaged in all three, each of which is necessary to the creation of a life-sustaining society.
