Reading all the devastating news on Gaza and other tragedies - TopicsExpress



          

Reading all the devastating news on Gaza and other tragedies throughout the world (see: Greek farmers shoot 28 Bangladeshi laborers demanding 6 months backpay, as a recent example), I have felt their overwhelming weight. It is important to support in as many ways as we are able -- one of which is to know that the people on the ground in these situations have and will exercise their agency in response to circumstances that directly affect them. Our support is crucial, but holding vicarious trauma destroys our ability to be supportive. Remember and celebrate life as often as you make known the pain.
