Dance Has A Transformative Effect

I Think So Much Of My Early Life, Even Though I Grew Up White And Middle Class, I Was Completely Shattered By The Horrifically Violent Atmosphere I Grew Up In. I Am A Consequence Of Violence. That Opened A Door To Many Realities That I Would Not Have Experienced Had I Not Survived What I Did.

The People Who Are On The Front Lines Every Day In Hospitals, Nurses, The People Who Are Running Clinics, The People Who Are Taking Care Of Your Children, Those Are The People Who Are The Lovers Of The World, Are The Good Of The World.

Danger Lurks When People Are Dissociated And Detached From Their Own Story Or Feelings.

I Don't Get Tired, Because Every Time A Woman Doesn't Die Or Doesn't Get Beaten Or Doesn't Get Raped Or Doesn't Get Honor-killed Or Doesn't Get Acid-burned, It's A Huge Victory.

Some Days I Would Get So Exhausted, Nauseous, In Pain - Just From Going Back Through Things. It's Almost As If I Had The Experience And Then The Meta-experience.
