@imainthecity: In the South-South, there are people who grew up being labeled things they didn't choose. Not always through rituals. Not always in obvious ways. But through fear, suspicion, and misunderstanding. Those experiences are real. But at the same time... they didn't come from nowhere. There is history here. There were practices. There were belief systems. There were ways of interpreting the world that shaped how people saw things they didn't understand. And over time, those things don't always stay as rituals. Sometimes, they become behavior. Sometimes, they become reactions. Sometimes, they become patterns people don't even realize they're repeating. So when we look at what happened... it's not just about individuals. It's about context. Because without context, everything looks random. And with context... things start to make more sense. This was the story Gary Foxcroft would have told...
