Dear Tim, Brother

"The rivers flow with milk The land overflows with honey Yet, hunger and homelessness are abundant" -TY

Inspired by your #ProtectTheEgg campaign, I continue my social housing explorations. As you work from the inside to literally keep those who are exiled alive, through medical and legal advocacy, I work from the outside. Gina Dent once said to me, when she saw my project Architects For Palestine:  "It's like we said in the movement, 'what skills can each individual bring'"? Things have to change at the roots and architecture must play its role. Be sure I will be consulting you on my designs as they emerge.

“Here in the united states the saying is that "this is the land of milk and honey." That proclamation has never applied to all people, or to the shadowy figures on the wrong side of the color spectrum...Milk and honey for some; crumbs and deprivation for the rest. I've always fallen on the crumbs and deprivation side. As an encapsulated shadowy figure, am I provided "milk and honey" modes of treatment, care and concern? Where do these pockets of milk and honey exist?” - TY
