Meditations in an Emergency
«Nobody wants an emergency, but perhaps we should want some of the remarkable things that can happen during them.» Whenever hope is running short, it’s a good idea to read Rebecca Solnit. The American writer and activist has started «Meditations in an Emergency», a new publication to meet the moment (on the same platform that this newsletter is hosted – hello fellow Ghost writer!). Her launch essay is a reminder of what’s possible, and a call to action. «No one knows what happens next. But I do know what happens next can and must be in part what we do next, in a thousand ways.»
