The pandemic as portal

It’s late and after a long day of work I’m facing a giant pile of still more and overdue work, but I wanted to share this quotation. It’s one that keeps haunting me. I use it to end a lot of presentations, and it seems to move audiences as well.

I don’t think I’ve blogged it, so let me do so now.

It’s from a 2020 article by the Indian writer Arundhati Roy. The essay reflects on how India and the world responded to the pandemic, and I recommend the whole thing for its sharp vision.
