Rewiring for Reality - Cross Generational Reckonings

Summary

A demanding resource from Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures for conversations across generations, written by Gen Xers and Millennials with Gen Z collaborators. “Younger generations aren’t asking for comfort.” They want elders who’ll reckon with seven decades of culture and power, and stay with the discomfort. Its parting advice: “Let it rot a little. That’s where new things grow.”

Rationale

Its questions, such as “What am I unwilling to unlearn because it keeps me comfortable?”, turn the inquiry back on the reader, as we try to in our own work.
