THE NOTEBOOK V2
The Notebook was created to hold a divergent space in a traditional world, existing somewhere between an academic journal and a popular magazine.
The Notebook: Solidarities
Volume 2, 2025
As you read this volume, I hope the message is clear: in moments of deep division, may we continue to prioritize the people, the work, and the practices that lift our energy and bring us together. Through story, art, and research, this publication shows how solidarities take root and how they move us toward a safer, more just world. It is both healing and energizing to be part of this community, and I am deeply grateful to share this with you all.
