“one day when i was a child, i came home from school angry, asking my mom why she told me that rocks, oceans, trees and stars all had a soul since my teacher told me it wasn’t true. My mother told me i was a mixed child of two soils, two cultures : the one where i was born, and the one where all my ancestors before me were born... and that those two different ways of belonging on Earth could live together in me, since my existence was the evidence of that.”
