Growing up in less than natural territory, I can only imagine these kinds of experiences, and immerse myself in them with abandon when I find references and images.<BR/><BR/>I can dig not feeding into holiday hype as well. The Christian church definitely founded their holidays at the same time as seasonal solstices, stole rituals and painted them over. This in addition to plagiarizing and detracting from and editing books of the Bible... The Vatican admits that there are 14 plagiarized passages in the Bible no less.<BR/><BR/>On this end my son and I started celebrating Gratitude Day in the stead of holidays founded in corrupt roots. It's a no meat eating, ancestor revering floating holiday set aside as an alternative to replace the crimes society wants us to forget by painting them over with smiling faces.<BR/><BR/>These commercialized celebrations of genocide, and related colonization practices are twisted and so many people have no idea what they're contributing energy to.<BR/><BR/>I posted about it recently.<BR/>http://purplezoe.blogspot.com/2007/11/crystalheads-gratitude-day.htmlPurpleZoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194302701364476475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069086204113824731.post-66371029257093007252007-11-27T15:09:00.000-06:002007-11-27T15:09:00.000-06:00Louisville MS native, so small so country.

A few years back, i visited Brunswick, GA and St. Simon's Islands...but what i most remembered was visiting a slave plantation...one such plantation still had parts of it's house remaining, and what stood in the middle of the house was a brick oven much like the one pictured in your post. This was like sacred ground to me...and i couldn't help feeling something in that place, so much so...i had to leave, but your post generated that memory.Mizrepresenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992754393960138393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069086204113824731.post-10249557235609046002007-11-24T13:57:00.000-06:002007-11-24T13:57:00.000-06:00Femigog, What a small world we live in.
