Thanks @theferocity.bsky.social for mentioning the terror attack in New Orleans and how our politicians prioritize tourism over the people.
This week on #VibeCheck, we talk about the US Surgeon General’s call for warning labels on alcohol and we try to make sense of our cultural obsession with surveilling each other on social people.
Also, I read a poem by Patricia Smith about the evacuation orders ahead of Hurricane Katrina.

True permaculture should start by acknowledging its debt to Indigenous and Black communities. It must center their voices, protect their land rights, and ensure they benefit from the use of their knowledge-not just through token mentions, but meaningful action.

Really, if western science wants to claim its place as a reputable and valid methodology/knowledge system, it needs to be focused on reparations for its exploitative and harmful past, not “knowledge acquisition”. In terms of both the environment and humanity. 3/6
