SACRED CHICKENS
Gods of Jade and Shadow Author, Silvie Moreno- Garcia by Jarad Johnson A blend of mythology, fairy tale and history, Gods of Jade and Shadow is captivating and original. There are many characters, events and places packed into three hundred pages, but essentially, a Mayan death god and a mortal girl embark on an adventure across Mexico, with the help of their demon friend. Yes, demon friend. We all have one of those. It’s epic in scope, and chock full of interesting mythological references. How could I resist? How could you resist?

ABCs OF ICE, OF FIRE PSYCHE by Alisa Velaj ABCs
We can't be clearer than this snowy sky, my dear. It has the guts to see everything stark naked, unabashedly so, down to the bone of nakedness-- similarly to Eden in its genesis days... You and I vest one armor piece upon another, lusty with bonfires stacked up deep inside us, while they never satiated us enough, nor ever burnt or cremated us to ashes... We are heroes of glorious sunny days-- our clarity held hostage by a long winter night, ever since you swore on rock and wood to flee four seasons away from snows, there, where the sun would shine your eyes... And here we are now—in season five, wordless and eyes downcast, under the same sky, which we shall never be able to outspace, unless we first master the spectrum of light! Translated from Albanian by Arben P. Latifi Readings on Racism by Sacred Chickens Staff This is not really a political site in one way, but as you know if you’ve read through our pages for long, we believe that all stories are political in that they give us a lens that helps us navigate real life, our expectations, and how we think we and others should be treated. Sometimes, we like to share opinions and stories that relate to current events. Here are some links we are working through this week.
In addition to the articles Jarad and I have found enlightening, a neighbor of mine shared some links with the neighborhood. Her recommended readings can be accessed under the label Anti-Racism Resources. (She shared the YouTube video that made this list as well.) We all need to stop and ask ourselves sometimes if we’re listening. Are we hearing other’s stories and perspectives? All of these links are food for thought. Read them. Listen to them. If they’re different from the perspective you usually hear, all the better. |
