At our recent community gathering, We Will Not Look Away: A Vigil for Grief, Kinship, & Refusal in the Face of Genocide, Ashira Darwish @premashira offered a powerful prayer—a call to alchemize our heartbreak and fury into sacred action. As a journalist, healer, and survivor, Ashira spoke from a place of embodied wisdom. She reminded us that the genocide in Gaza demands not only our mourning—but our movement. May we listen deeply. May we not be paralyzed by the pain. May we rise with grounded clarity to honor every life stolen and every voice silenced. We are not spectators. We are the firelight of refusal. We do not look away. We carry the grief forward. #WeWillNotLookAway #Gaza #Palestine #PrayerAsAction #SacredRefusal #FromGriefToMovement
