Ngithathe i- World BEYOND War Inkambo yokuQothulwa kweMpi 101 online entwasahlobo ka-2021 futhi ngagqugquzelwa ngokuphelele futhi ngaba namandla okwazi abanye abasebenzi be-WBW abashukumisayo nabanothando kanye nebhodi labaqondisi, futhi ngifunde ngenhlangano yokuthula yomhlaba wonke. Nganquma ukujoyina isahluko sendawo, kodwa ngamangala lapho ngithola ukuthi sasingekho. Ngakho ngabhalisela i- I-WBW Ukuhlela izifundo ze-101 kwathi ngoNovemba ka-2021 sabamba umhlangano wokuqala we Montreal for a World BEYOND War!

Yiziphi izinhlobo zezenzo zokuzithandela ozisiza ngazo?

Yize sinezinyanga ezimbalwa nje sibe yisahluko, amalungu esahluko asevele ehambele imibhikisho nemibuthano ehlobene nokuthula (i-Montréal kwesinye isikhathi ibizwa ngeLa Ville des manifs), futhi sikhiphe isitatimende esisekela i-Wet'suwet'en. Isahluko sethu sibambe iqhaza Ayikho i-Fighter Jets Coalition imihlangano futhi sihlela ukugxila kulowo mkhankaso ngo-2022.

Kusukela ngoJanuwari unyaka owodwa wokuqinisekiswa seSivumelwano Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi, isahluko sethu sijabule ngokubamba i-webinar yamahhala ngoJanuwari 12, 2022, nombhali wendawo, uchwepheshe wenqubomgomo yangaphandle, isishoshovu sokuthula, kanye nelungu lebhodi labaluleki le-WBW uYves Engler.

Yiziphi izincomo zakho eziphezulu kumuntu ofuna ukuzibandakanya nezishoshovu zokulwa nempi kanye ne-WBW?

Ngingakhuthaza lo muntu ukuthi aqhubeke futhi abelane ngezipho zakho—noma ngabe ziyini—nomhlaba. Uma uthanda imibuthano, hambela imibuthano, uma uthanda ukubhala, ukubhala, uma uthanda ukuxoxa, joyina iqembu lezingxoxo futhi uhlele noma uhambele i-webinar. Ukuthula kuwumphakathi womhlaba ukuthi iyini impilo kumuntu ngamunye—uma ungenakho lokho, izimpilo zethu zilinganiselwe futhi sonke siyahlupheka. Ubushoshovu bokuthula bungenye yemizamo encomekayo nebalulekile ongayenza, futhi uma sonke sihlangana ndawonye singakwazi ukusiza isintu ukuthi siguquke emqondweni waso oncintisanayo siye esikweni lokuthula, lapho sithokozela ukuxhumana kwethu nomunye nomunye. umthwalo wethu kuwo wonke umhlaba wemvelo.

Yiba umholi, ngisho noma ungazicabangeli kanjalo. Ngicabanga ukuthi le khathuni ikusho kahle kakhulu:

Yini ekugcina uphefumulelwe ukusekela ushintsho?

Ngiyathanda ukufunda, ngezincwadi, izindaba, namadokhumentari, kodwa izehlakalo zomhlaba, namaqiniso anjengokucwasa ngokwebala, ukucwasa ngokwezinhlobo zezinto eziphilayo, nokushintsha kwesimo sezulu, kungadabukisa. Ngithola ukuthi ukuthatha izinyathelo kungenza ngixhumane nabantu abakhuthazayo futhi kungenza ngizizwe nginethemba elikhulu ngakho konke. Kuwumuzwa omangalisayo uma ubamba iqhaza emkhankasweni bese uqaphela ukuthi usuphumelele—njengoba kwenzekile ngemikhankaso yezemvelo nepolitiki engibambe iqhaza kuyo.

Ubhubhane lwe-coronavirus likuthinte kanjani amandla akho ku-activism?

Uma sikhuluma nje, ubushoshovu bami buyaqhubeka njengakuqala, kodwa ngemihlangano ye-Zoom esikhundleni seyomuntu siqu. (Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi ngingakusho lokhu, kodwa ngiphuthelwa imihlangano yomuntu siqu!) Uma ngikhuluma ngefilosofi, ngicabanga ukuthi ubhubhane kanye nokushintsha kwesimo sezulu okuqhubekayo kusenze sonke saqaphela ukufa kwethu kanye nokuba sengozini kwethu ngakho ngaleyo ndlela kuyithuba. ngendlela engakaze ikhulume ngokuthula, noma ngamanye amazwi, ukuhluzeka kwengqondo;).
