Today's piece felt too important to put behind a paywall.
In it, I discuss the challenge for those trying to secure peace by means beyond the battlefield.
I talk about Colombia's Total Peace initiative with local guerrillas and gangs, and the role of oil imperialism not just in killing our climate but also binding us to a different theory of foreign policy, and power.
Everything is connected.
The path to peace requires us to remember how deep our war wounds truly run.

@MLClark It was very good. I highly recommend people subscribe to your work. It’s a bargain, and you put so much careful thought into your writing. I think you are a brilliant writer and thought leader.
It means so much to have engaged, thoughtful people to write for, and live alongside. 💛
Thank you so much for those fortifying words, MrsMess. It helps immeasurably to know I'm not holding difficult thoughts alone.
