Decolonization is a processes that was initiated prior and will follow for generations to follow. The significance of writing a letter to you future seed, captures what you have learned in your life time into a manifestation of documents that will help generations to come. Condensing the letter helps one highlight the most significant aspects of our personal understanding of decolonization. Below is a piece I extracted from my letter to my future child.
Luminous by blood Mexican-American; by labeled culture-- know that you are more luminous than that, you are an indigenous human by blood. RE-INDIGENIZE YOUR SPIRIT AND PRESENCE. Love yourself, love others for what they are, and question everything present in and out of class (especially history), be yourself and be open about your narrative. Know that, not everyone is ready to decolonize-- love them too.
