2011 wrap-up & updates coming soon! I promise!

FRIDAY OCT 7, 2011

LOVE & SOLIDARITY
Today, I wake up in the belly of the beast, Ft. Hood Texas, and feel the weight of history. The weight of watching the slow turning gears of the machine of oppression continue to click, click, click. And I know that many of you wake up and feel this same weight on your chest and under your eyes. So on the start of this tenth year of war I just want to thank you all for all your daily struggle. Your struggles to understand the machine, to withdraw your self and your labor from the machine, to tear out the gears of the machine, to throw a wrench into the machine, and to hold space for … freedom. Thank you for inspiring me to wake up everyday to build a new day.
The tides are turning.
History is shifting.
Freedom is growing.
We are winning.
LOVE & SOLIDARITY
From the belly of the beast, Ft. Hood Texas, peace,
Aaron Hughes
