Naomi Klein has an interesting chapter called "The Unshakable Ethnic Double" in her book Doppelganger, which I am currently reading.

Gosh Joan, I love how there's no beating around the bush with you. I have felt a bit weary with weight of these wars. And I am well aware I'm writing this from the comfort of my own safe bed in Australia. Imagine the actual weight of war in your face! Ugh. But I have been grappling with the same thoughts as you and I just wanted to thank you for spelling it out so succinctly and inclusively. So, for now anyway, peace prevails. It's impossible to fix wars from here. But it is possible to do whatever it is that brings peace to us in our own environments. Signing up for your subscription was a really fortunate step Reading your post in the middle of the night has helped.
