Voices from Silence: Dadirri in Kalithan

A 'first Friday of the month' series, from Seeds of Silence. ​

This series is a way to bring some voices from the GMH/ BIPOC* communities into the conversations and resources that Seeds of Silence offers on its website.

“It feels entirely appropriate that I am sitting in silence while I am writing this.
Of course the silence here is never truly silent. I live in London, in an area stacked with new-builds, piling us on top on top on top of each other where there is no space to spread out across the horizon.

But silence is more of a state of being than a lack of noise.”

​* The terms 'Global Majority Heritage' (GMH) and 'Black and Indigenous Peoples of Colour' (BIPOC) refers to people whose backgrounds are from non-Western, non-White ethnic and cultural groups, reflecting the fact that the majority of the world’s population comes from Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. These terms acknowledge the rich heritage of ancient Indigenous communities and challenge the traditional framing of racial and ethnic minorities by emphasizing that these populations are, in fact, the global majority.
