For want of God, or something else, Jacob soon realized hell was not fire but suffering for want of worship.
“Robinson further explained that, “intersectionality theory also highlights the connection between speciesism and sexism, revealing the way that female animals and feminized others, including the land, are treated as objects for domination and rape (Adams, 1990). Given the ongoing problem of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada, the US, and elsewhere, it is important to highlight the role that the intersection of sexism and speciesism play in making it possible for individuals, the general public, police agencies, and governments to treat Indigenous women as if our suffering is unreal, or unimportant.”

“I wondered if the protest of hunting in Short Hills might be an example of what Donna Baines terms the “flight to innocence,” an effort to “elude the responsibility for changing oppressive relations by hiding behind some facet of their identity that locates them close to, or within, subordinated groups” (2002, p. 192).

“All my life I have overheard, all my life I have listened to what people will let slip when they think you are part of their we. A we is so powerful. It is the most corrupt and formidable institution on earth. Its hands are full of the crispest and most persuasive currency. Its mouth is full of received, repeating language. The we closes its ranks to protect the space inside it, where the air is different. It does not protect people. It protects its own shape.”
