Minga de Fuegitos
more than a word
or a people's intellectual property,
it's a feeling
a sense for/of collectivity
a communal effort
We are studying and living with and despite systematic oblivion, denial of rights, erasures, forced displacements, people and forests burning, burn outs. We want to gather to burn an other fire. One that cooks soup, holds the knowledge of our bod(territor)ies and mobilizes love for a collective work of hope.
the Minga is held by you, us, everyone who is present
by dancing, attending, shouting out, singing, sitting, resting you contribute
you can look at it with distance, later!
Have a look into the booklets, if you want to read more on the practice of Minga, the ties, references, how’s, why’s and learnings of the process in relation to my positionality.
