Title: On Redefining Words By: Kevin Corcoran

In "On Redefining Words," Kevin Corcoran scrutinizes the redefinition of "racism," particularly through Ibram Kendi's lens, yet perhaps falls into a trap of naivety regarding the profound depths of racism’s definition and impact. Corcoran's critique of Kendi’s definitions, while raising valid points about the potential dilution of the term, may inadvertently overlook the systemic and psychological roots of racism that permeate not only outcomes but processes, structures, and societal norms. Engage with the article to explore this perspective and consider the depth and breadth of racism as a systemic construct beyond mere definitional debates.

Title: National security concerns over high number of terror suspects arrested at southern border By: Rocio De La Fe

The surge of migrants at the U.S.-MX border, some on the FBI's terrorist watchlist, mirrors the deceptive conquests of yesteryears, notably Hernán Cortés's conquest of Mexico-Tenochtitlan, which subjected indigenous peoples to brutal Spanish rule through deceit and exploitation. Today's complex border issues intertwine genuine migrant needs with potential threats, reminding us that the repercussions of historical oppression reverberate in our present struggles. The chickens, indeed, come home to roost, highlighting the inevitable repercussions of historical and systemic oppression, and underscoring the necessity of our strategic, informed responses in navigating through them.

🌌 Ma'at Moment 🌌

Ma’at is ethical principles collectively embracing the values of truth, justice, harmony, balance, cosmological order, reciprocity and propriety. The Goddess Ma'at, often depicted with an ostrich feather, symbolizes the equilibrium and harmony that governs all existence. In our pursuit of dismantling systemic structures, Ma'at's principles guide us towards establishing a society where balance and justice prevail.

Understanding Ma'at, we ponder: How can we embody these principles in our strategies to dismantle oppressive systems? How do we ensure that our actions, grounded in truth and justice, genuinely move us towards a harmonious society?

The wisdom of Ma'at serves as a spiritual and ethical guide, reminding us that the transformation we seek externally begins with an internal alignment with truth, balance, and justice. It's a call to deeply understand the systems we aim to dismantle, recognizing that our strategies must be both ethically and practically potent.
