i think/feel alot/often abt this film: The Color of Fear - Lee Mun Wah (1994)
if yve seen the film you’ll prolly recognize Victor Lee Lewis, founder and Director of the Radical Resilience Institute whose presence, patience, and intensities are unforgettable. as ppl often observe: the dialog that occurs 26 yrs ago is oc urgent today. everyOne in the film dedicates themselves to the film and each other with unflinching honesty. they get somewhere together, deconstructing racisms that they/we know 1rst hand. oc ppl know these lived realities differently
from my vector-view, i have to be responsible. i am thankful/grateful to those who inspire, challenge, and travel alongside. i work on myself as a cis-white-he/him who was raised in the brokendown midwastelands of these here imperialist settler-colonial cultures, with the privileges that violently confers. i’ll keep working on it everywhere + everywhen i can. its takes constant ongoing, hard, and sincere work to decolonize, to dismantle white supremacies, divest from privileges, decenter/disarm patriarchy, end institutional racism wherever + whenever we can, from the small scale of 1:1 to the ever larger pictures that ripple out and feedback in
