🌱 I long for a just community. Can we talk?
|
Dear community I long for a just community. Where queer is normal. A place where we loosen the grip of money, and hold a vision of something new. I feel a longing for deeper connection, especially in person. Because I really believe we can. Can we talk? How do we make this happen? If this speaks to you, reply YES and let’s have a playful, real conversation. I’m going to pause more prompts for now. Instead, I want to reach out, one conversation at a time, and ask. How do we create a just community together? If you'd like to step into how I feel we can create a just community, here's four ways I'm showing up. • Join the next PROJECT 10⁹ • Come to Convergence Residency, Nairobi (20–24 May 2026) • Join me tonight for the Men’s Circle - email me an emoji • Bring Rise in Our Roots to your community, wherever you are in the world And a song that feels true to the CEO Rockstar group right now 🎶

For me, here is what it is like beyond the square Zoom screen. I am working through my ancestral trauma, wanting to me the final iteration of the violence of the past and not...
Dear community Thank you for all the beautiful conversations this week during one-to-ones and PROJECT 10⁹. PROJECT 10⁹ will be going to locations this spring and summer. Aberdeen on 9 August, Green Earth Awakening on 11 September, and Bristol with a date to be confirmed. 💖🌱👇🏾 Grief, knowledge and the courage to stay open We are all consuming more grief. The grief of humanity. Personal grief of things happening at home. The cruelty we are witnessing around the world. What I am noticing is that...
Dear community I’ve sometimes shied away from talking about racism. Perhaps just to get through the day. Perhaps telling myself it’s not there. Perhaps knowing it is there, and choosing to ignore it. I’ve definitely felt awkward writing about it at times. Many of you will remember that I used to run anti-racism programmes focused on power, privilege, and inclusion. I stopped because it felt like hurt was meeting hurt, again and again. Or performative reporting being celebrated. I still roll...
