post-MMMC

I just got home from Making Money Make Change and feel the usual combination of energized/agitated/inspired/frustrated and emotionally demolished. I want to write so much and I have a lot of processing to do, but for now all I can do is sleep.

I do want to say that the workshop Tiny and I did (I think we called it something like Community Reparations and Interdependence) was really inspiring for me and the conversation interestingly turned to the theme of “moving back home” that keeps popping up everywhere recently. There is much to say on this topic and I’d like to share both this guest essay on Jessie’s blog that I’ve been meaning to post for awhile, by Martha Jane about moving in with parents, and this recent piece by Jessie with some continuing reflections on this theme.

The idea of writing coherent reflections about MMMC is something I find highly intimidating due to my long-time entanglement (there’s so much to say but where do I start?), but I’m going to try. I think. After I sleep more.

p.s. For now let me reiterate these reflections from last year.
