Usually when people ask me a question, they wait for the answer instead of answering for me. I don't know if you are new to my blog, so I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt. The violence that I referred to is something that I confront everyone about, not just a single community. You can catch up on the scope of that statement by reading my post that I wrote 6 months ago, or you can read my book.

As for your "lets just forget about all this", those are your words, not mine. At no time have I ever uttered those words or even suggested that either. I ask that you be mindful and honourable with your quotes. My post is about ending the violence so that people can heal. The healing process is extremely difficult to do when the violence is still taking place. I don't advocate that we 'forget' anything but rather consciously recognize our own violence and find peace. We all engage in violence in one form or another. By declaring peace, we can then start the healing. I've found in my own life that being peaceful and learning how to have healthy boundaries, the violence towards me decreased significantly.

I confront the oppressors and rebuke their violence. This post is in support of the marginalized by taking away the justification that the abusers use to engage in that level of violence. While I recognize that you are in pain yourself, I ask that you check yourself to ensure that you are not making assumptions which can be interpreted as being passive / aggressive behaviour.

The colonial system that supports, encourages and justifies the violence is what we need to walk away from. The levels of violence are deep and complex. I agree with you that we are innately the same and by honouring and respecting the differences we each have, we can engage in healthy relationships. By looking past the color of our skin, the languages we speak, belief systems, sexual orientation or any other characteristic, and instead peer into the spirit of the other, we will find we are all spiritual beings founded on love, compassion, empathy, peace and prosperity.

It is my intent to confront and rebuke those who engage in violence as the struggles are very real and I see & recognize them. I welcome you to go through my blog. You will find that I am an ally, not some blind oppressor trying to get people to ignore the shit that is going on.
