TW: queerphobia, violence
reflecting on this weekend’s mass shooting and grappling with the difficulties of creating a safe community space.
whenever our sense of safety is threatened, we can only turn to one another, and lean on the community to rebuild trust and safety.
what does safety look like for you?

I had numerous chats with friends and comrades craving to find a queer muslim space that’s truly liberatory, facilitates growth, creates community, and offers accountability. Too many of us have been harmed in spaces that affirm parts of our identities and values while simultaneously rejecting other parts of us, leading to a paradoxical confusion of belonging. I hope this space can celebrate us in our diversity and honor our pursuit for liberation 🤲🏽
