i’ve been doing religion a little bit recently. well, not religion but ritual. it’s been a way to share a cultural experience i had as a kid with friends who had other experiences. and to connect and commiserate with friends that have had similar experiences. and maybe it’s also been an attempt at reclaiming the years of my life going through (what i’ve learned as i reflect were) meaningless ritual. family time felt significant but the rituals feel meaningless devoid of any larger critical context. i’m very very thankful to folks who have written thoughtful and radical haggadot. here’s the anti-zionist haggadah we used for passover this year: bit.ly/40xX3d0. this isn’t a part of my life i’m looking to cultivate much more than an excuse to prepare a seder and make and share food with friends a few times a year, but reflecting on my position as an american jew while palestinians live under violent occupation in my name can be a daily ritual.
