Through this journal, we are inviting you into a new way of thinking and doing, one which begins with questioning everything we take for granted.
In particular, how we contribute – or think we contribute – to a better world. We will not have all the answers, but we want to ask better questions.
“Do you know the legend about cicadas? They say they are the souls of poets who cannot keep quiet because, when they were alive, they never wrote the poems they wanted to.” ― John Berger

“Vocabulary is not genocidal. Annihilation is.” — Mohammed El Kurd
“Those who say it can't be done are usually interrupted by others doing it.” ― James Baldwin
“Language is never sufficient. There is not enough of it to make a true mirror of living. The soothing or afflictive effect of stories we tell is not in whether we select the right words, but in our proximity to what the right words might be. This is not some abstraction, but a very real expression of power — the privilege of describing a thing vaguely, incompletely, dishonestly, is inseparable from the privilege of looking away.” — Omar El Akkad
“We must laugh in the face of our helplessness against the forces of nature — or go insane.” — Charlie Chaplin
