Wir sind auch Wien - Center for antiracist & antidiscriminatory Psychosocial Health
“To be surrounded
By women of colour
Is to heal
Which isn't to say that
Its their job to be a balm
But that this whole earth
Is a sharpened blade
And I’m grateful
To have found
The only place
Where i feel safe enough
To catch my breath
And let the wounds rest”.
– Safe Space, Jasmin Kaur
