I am grateful for the aliveness of community, the resonant inspiration, the deep honesty, and the reverberating courage and action in this moment. I have felt horrified, terrified, desperate, enraged, grief stricken, disgusted – and with communal support – I’ve also felt morally courageous.
I was grappling with: how can I, as the therapist who typically leads from compassion and curiosity, speak to that which actually needs much more - that which needs assertive, clarifying and organized moral courage? With deeper reflection, my discovery was that we can be context conscious — and also that actually, compassion is at the heart of moral courage. I talked more about it in a previous post.
But here, I just want to name what is: this is fascist behavior, this is both traumatizing and re-traumatizing for many, and we need moral courage now.
