Mourning.
\nI\u2019m mourning.
\nWe\u2019re mourning.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m mourning the ancestors upon whose forced labour much of this land\u2019s wealth was built.
\nI\u2019m mourning my brothers and sisters dying across the pond.
\nI\u2019m mourning my family in the Mediterranean Sea.
\nI\u2019m mourning the relatives that didn\u2019t go viral..<\/p>\n

I\u2019m mourning.
\nI\u2019m mourning.
\nI\u2019m mourning, I\u2019m mourning so hard I can barely breathe.
\nI\u2019m mourning my baby brother in Bornholm.
\nBornholm.
\nBornholm.
\nBorn..<\/p>\n

I\u2019m mourning the fact that mourning is a part of being me.
\nIt comes with this body.
\nIt comes with this world.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m tired. So tired.<\/p>\n

For 12 hours l will walk with the spirits that I\u2019m mourning.<\/p>\n

Will it heal something? I don\u2019t know. Will it change something? Probably not. Will I reach exhaustion? Definitely. Will I keep going? Until I die.<\/p>\n

If you are tired, keep going
\n<\/em>If you are scared, keep going
\n<\/em>If you are hungry, keep going
\n<\/em>If you want to taste freedom, keep going<\/em><\/p>\n

– Harriet Tubman<\/p>\n
