The Cure :-) So the sons and daughters of what used to be here in Pembroke the largest black farming community north of the Mason-Dixon line came here and did not want to know how to farm. They did not want to know anything to do with dealing with the land My husbands father would say, What’s wrong with you boy? You doing the very thing that we all ran away from. You down there growing food, whats wrong with you? Constantly, we kept meeting this experience of people being in a lot of pain with the earth. So we all said, ‘what’s going on here?’ The very thing that we need to heal is the thing that all of us have been taught to no longer value. And so we literally buried the pain here... not only did we put the pain back into the earth, we also picked up our power, of our relationship with the earth. We have here strawberries for love and forgiveness. And calendula, for wound healing... fellows came from Uganda and Kenya, and they shared in it...and maybe we can begin to do a global process where we’ll release our colonization and our suffering, and regain our power again. - Healthy Food Hub ~Via Sayyid Mujahid Abdallahs page
