I’ve had it wrong all those years.
And not just the colonial / white feminist language for which I apologise.
I’ve had an epiphany recently that came to me in very simple language. It reminded me who is sheltering (“saving”) the humanity of whom.

This is the first time when my podcast episode comes directly from my video. Please choose the format that’s more accessible to you.
And as always: stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.

It’s a conversation good for our brains and conscience.
