Fugitive Hope: Sacred Acts of Resistance (in-person and online, at South Nassau Unitarian Universalist Congregation)

Fugitive Hope: Sacred Acts of Resistance

South Nassau Unitarian Universalist Congregation (SNUUC)

This month, we will continue with our ongoing theme of finding hope in difficult times. We will ask: what if the hope in these times of collapse isn’t found in fixing broken systems, but in becoming illegible to them? To situate ourselves at a tangent to the systems of power? Inspired by Bayo Akomolafe and other decolonial and disability theorists, we’ll explore “fugitive hope” - a different way of moving through crisis that creates possibilities that are so outside the norm, that systems of domination can’t imagine, and hence, control them.
