Grief lives here.
In our bodies.
In our lives.
In our homes.
In our communities.
In our lands.
In our countries.
In our world.
And maybe when we come together and let our griefs touch, reach across our cultural divide of individualism and privatization, to acknowledge what we carry, to stand on common ground with our cracked hearts, human to human, then maybe in the moving together, maybe in the pageantry of grief as a collective protest, a refusal to rise above and get over but to instead make space for its medicine, then maybe we will also come to know
how love
how beauty
how joy
how compassion
live here, too, alongside all this grief.
Together, by processing along the Delaware River, we will claim our grief as natural, as sacred, as a common, unifying mystery that softens and transforms how we relate to ourselves and each other ... and reminds us of the healing power of holding each other in community.
You are encouraged to “wear your grief,” as you feel inspired. This event is free to attend but donations are appreciated.
