about

Inspired by this quote:

"There is no English equivalent to the Arabic word
qaher. The dictionary says “anger” but it's not.
It is when you take anger, place it on a low fire, add
injustice, oppression, racism, dehumanization to it,
and leave it to cook slowly for a century. And then
you try to say it but no one hears you. So it sits in
your heart. And settles in your cells. And it
becomes your genetic imprint. And then moves
through generations. And one day, you find yourself
unable to breathe. It washes over you and demands
to break out of you. You weep. And the cycle
repeats." - Khadija Dajani
