Hi Toby,

We feel sorry that we have hurt and disappointed you after all the time we have spent learning and unlearning together. Thank you for the education you provided in your email. We appreciate the labor.

Everything we are reading and learning from offers a diverse array of perspectives that are deepening our own analysis on the conflict in the region. We are filtering it all through our liberatory consciousness and what we’ve learned over the past 10 years doing anti-oppression work.

We understand that this post was a deal breaker for you.

We will continue to hold you in high regard.

Sirius, Hilary, Dana
