Ukimya wa kelele<\/b><\/h3>\n

Asante, Ben Handy, kwa kuashiria ”Umuhimu wa Kelele Wakati wa Ibada ya Kimya” (<\/span>
\n FJ<\/span>
\n<\/i> Feb.). Wakati nikitafakari kimya kimya na kukumbuka kuketi katika nyumba 20 zaidi za mikutano, mambo mawili makali yalikuja akilini mwao: Mkutano wa Baruti huko Sparks, Md., wakati utunzaji wa nyasi (malisho ya kondoo) ukiendelea kwenye kaburi la karibu na Mkutano wa Ramallah huko Palestina huku jeep za jeshi zikinguruma na mabomu ya kulipuka katika barabara kuu ya barabara kuu.<\/span><\/p>\n

Makala ya kupendeza, ya uaminifu na ya kufurahisha. Ni mazingira tofauti na jumba langu la mikutano la karne ya kumi na nane katika mji wa soko la Kiingereza. Karibu kila mtu lazima aje kwa gari kutoka nje ya mji kwani hakuna usafiri mwingine siku za Jumapili. Ikiwa hali zetu za hali ya hewa zingekuwa za hila kama zile zilizoelezewa na Handy, ingekuwa hatari sana. Inatia moyo kuingizwa katika mawazo ya mtu mwingine katika ukimya. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nina tinnitus – toni mbili tofauti, moja katika kila sikio. Nimegundua kwamba siisikii kwa sababu siisikii, lakini katika mkutano wa ibada huwezi kuikwepa. Kisha nikagundua kuwa katikati ya kelele, kuna utulivu ninaoutafuta. Nukuu ya Quaker ambayo naona kuwa yenye kutia moyo zaidi maishani mwangu ni huduma isiyojulikana ambayo ilitolewa katika mkutano wa karne ya kumi na saba huko Scotland: \u201cKatika utulivu kuna utimilifu; katika utimilifu hakuna kitu; katika kutokuwa na vitu vyote. Huu kwangu ndio utaratibu ninaofuata katika mkutano. Sipewi kila mara, lakini inapofika ninahisi utulivu mkubwa. <\/span><\/p>\n

Mtunzi mdogo kabisa John Cage alitoa utunzi wa harakati tatu<\/span>
\n 4\u203233\u2033.<\/span>
\n<\/i> ambapo waigizaji (wa)imbaji waliagizwa kutocheza ala zao wakati wote wa kipande hicho. Cage alijadili hili kama moja ya hadithi za dakika moja katika kazi yake ya 1959 <\/span>
\n Indeterminacy<\/span>
\n<\/i> , utendaji ambao unapatikana kutoka Smithsonian Folkways.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nilikuwa na bahati ya kumjua Cage kidogo nilipokuwa mwanafunzi wa shahada ya kwanza katika elimu ya nyota katika Chuo Kikuu cha Wesleyan, na bila kujua nilishiriki jukumu ndogo katika kuwezesha Cage kuandika kipande kingine,<\/span>
\n Atlas Eclipticalis.<\/span>
\n<\/i>. Alikuwa amekuja kwenye chumba cha uchunguzi akitafuta chati ya nyota. Nilitokea pale na kumuonyesha moja nzuri ambayo tulikuwa tumetoka kuipokea; aliitumia kama msingi wa utunzi wake. Nilihudhuria Waziri Mkuu wa Marekani wa hii katika Chuo cha Connecticut na mmoja wa maprofesa wangu, ambaye pia alikuwa Rafiki. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ni makala yenye kupendeza kama nini! Maoni kuhusu ubinafsi wako ni ya kuchekesha sana, kama vile kuonyesha benchi ni aina gani ya ustadi ulio nao! Hivyo apt! Na uzoefu kama huu wa kupata ibada ya kina kwa urahisi zaidi kati ya kelele. Mojawapo ya nyakati za ibada zenye matunda sana niliyokuwa nayo ni nilipoishi Manhattan, NY, kukiwa na kelele za kila aina hapa chini. <\/span><\/p>\n

Hapa Exeter, Uingereza, hivi majuzi tumefanya mikutano ya ibada nje katikati ya jiji. Tuna mduara wa viti, waabudu nusu dazeni, na Marafiki pembezoni tayari kujibu maswali na kuwaalika watu kuketi nasi. Wachache walifanya hivyo, lakini ilikuwa ni aina ya ushuhuda na kulikuwa na hisia tofauti ya kuwa jiwe katika mkondo wa biashara ya binadamu. Hubbub ya nje ilizidisha ukimya wa ndani. Ukimya unahitaji kelele ya muktadha: kelele inahitaji muktadha wa ukimya. Zote mbili hazina maana bila nyingine. <\/span><\/p>\n

Jinsia na kuzeeka<\/b><\/h3>\n

Shukrani zangu kwa Elizabeth Boardman kwa ”Mwanaume, Mwanamke, au Mzima?” katika<\/span>
\n Jarida la Marafiki<\/span>
\n<\/i> la Januari. Ingawa ninakaribisha utambuzi kwamba kuvuka mipaka ya dhana potofu za kijinsia ni kuelekea utimilifu, sishiriki maana, inayodokezwa na kichwa chake, kwamba kuelekea ukamilifu kwa njia hii ni kuondoka kutoka kwa utambulisho wa asili wa kijinsia. Na sijashawishika kwamba, kama Boardman anavyoandika, ”wengi wetu tulilelewa kufikiri kwamba utambulisho wetu wa kijinsia, labda hata utendaji wetu wa ngono, ulikuwa jambo muhimu zaidi kwetu.” ”Mwanaume” ilikuwa tu tabia nyingine ya kimwili, kama vile nywele za kahawia (sasa zina mvi), macho ya kahawia (bado), na urefu (zinazopungua kidogo?). <\/span><\/p>\n

Kwa Boardman, hatua hii kuelekea utimilifu ilichochewa na mabadiliko ya kibayolojia ambayo huja (hasa) kulingana na umri, ambayo hupunguza utendakazi mahususi wa kijinsia wa mwili wa mtu. Anabainisha hii kama hatua kuelekea androgyny. Lakini, kwa baadhi yetu sisi wanaume, ”zinazofikiriwa kuwa sifa za kike” zimeonekana asili kwetu kila mara; kwa baadhi ya wanawake, nadhani, ”uwezo na hisia ambazo kawaida huhusishwa na wanaume” daima zimehusishwa kwa usawa na wanawake. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sasa ninakaribia miaka 70, lakini nilikuwa karibu zaidi na 7 nilipoonyesha nia ya kushona kwa mara ya kwanza (nimekuwa fundi hodari wa kushona wakati wa vipindi kadhaa vya maisha yangu, kutia ndani miaka yangu ya utineja), kupika, na (kwa kiasi fulani baadaye) kuishi ”pweke kwa njia ya kusisimua.” Ingawa utendakazi na mielekeo yangu mahususi ya kijinsia imeanza kupungua, sina hisia ya kuhama kutoka kwa uanaume wangu, ambao kila mara umekuwa hauhusiani na sifa zisizo na umuhimu wa kijinsia zinazoitwa ”kiume.” Kwangu, kumekuwa hakuna mwelekeo kuelekea androgyny, wala hoja kama hiyo ni lengo nina kwa ajili yangu mwenyewe. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nilikumbana na dhana hii kwa mara ya kwanza miezi michache iliyopita, nilipokuwa nikitazama mahojiano na mwigizaji Glenda Jackson kuhusu uigizaji wake wa hivi majuzi wa<\/span>
\n King Lear<\/span>
\n<\/i> wa Shakespeare.. Jackson alionyesha hisia kwamba kadiri anavyozeeka, dhana yake ya ”binafsi” imezidi kuwa ya kike, na kwa hivyo hakuona chochote kinzani katika kuchukua jukumu hili la ”kiume”. Kusikia maneno yake ilikuwa aha! dakika kwa ajili yangu; Niliweza kuhusika mara moja. <\/span><\/p>\n

Jamii yetu inaelekea kufanya ngono kila kitu kwa njia zisizofaa sana. Wazo la ukamilifu wa androgynous ni dhana inayohitajika sana katika maoni yetu ya kuzeeka. Baada ya kusikia mahojiano ya Jackson, nilikuwa na njaa zaidi. Ninashukuru kwa ufafanuzi mpana wa Boardman wa hatua hii ya maisha na hali ya kuwa na msisitizo wa ukamilifu. Ilikuwa ukombozi wa kina. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kuwa mwanamke aliyebadili jinsia, na kuhangaika na jinsia maisha yangu yote, nikiniambia, jinsi ninavyokubali jinsia nikiwa na umri mkubwa, kwamba kwa maana fulani jinsia haijalishi zaidi au kwa njia fulani sio muhimu, inaonekana kama ubatili wa maisha yangu yote. Inaleta mawazo machungu sana juu ya jinsi nimeishi, kama hasira inayojielekeza. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ningependa kushiriki na Elizabeth, kwa furaha fulani, kwamba vijana wengi na wawindaji wa miaka ya 40 wanaona kifupi cha jumuiya yetu kuwa LGBTQIA2 kama njia ya kujumuisha nyanja nyingi za jumuiya yetu, ikiwa ni pamoja na ujinsia, jinsia, mwelekeo wa kimapenzi, na utambulisho ulioacha ukoloni (LGBTQIA2 = msagaji; mashoga; mashoga; mashoga; washirikina wa jinsia mbili); kunukia; na 2-roho).<\/span><\/p>\n

Baadhi ya watu wanaona inafaa kulalamika kuhusu kuongeza barua, lakini inahisi kama ufunguzi: kukumbatia kwa joto kuwataja ndugu na dada zangu na kuweka utambulisho wangu katika jumuiya pamoja na wao. Pamoja, sisi ni kamili zaidi. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kamari za kupendeza<\/b><\/h3>\n

Toleo la Novemba 2019 kuhusu kamari ni toleo la kwanza la<\/span>
\n Jarida la Friends<\/span>
\n<\/i> Nimewahi kuokota. Pamela Haines ”Kucheza Kamari, Bora au Kwa Mbaya Zaidi” ilinirudia kwa sababu yeye huweka wazi safu karibu na shughuli inayoonekana kuwa tofauti na anahoji masuala mazito yaliyo hatarini. Ulimwengu wetu umejaa kutokuwa na uhakika, bahati nasibu, na hatari, kwa hivyo hatuwezi kuepuka kucheza kamari kwa maana fulani; kwa kweli, Haines anasema kwamba imani yetu na ahadi nyingine ni kamari admirable kufanya. Pia anachora mstari muhimu katika fedha kati ya uvumi usio na maana na uwekezaji unaoheshimu uadilifu wa wafanyakazi katika jamii. <\/span><\/p>\n

Kutoridhika kwa changamoto<\/b><\/h3>\n

”Liturujia Yangu” na r. scot miller ( <\/span>
\n FJ<\/span>
\n<\/i> Jan.) anazungumza mawazo yangu. Nikiwa mraibu na mraibu wa kileo ambaye nilitangatanga katika ibada miaka 35 hivi iliyopita, miaka michache tu ya kupona, nilitafuta jumuiya ya kiroho isiyounga mkono ili kulea familia yangu. Tulikuwa tukipata nafuu kutokana na uraibu, kujitenga, kiwewe, Ukatoliki, uinjilisti, na ni nani anajua nini kingine. Ukimya ulikuwa dawa ya kukaribisha kwa hofu yangu, na harakati za utulivu zisizo na unyanyasaji zilikuwa suluhisho kwa vurugu za historia yangu mwenyewe. Nilihisi nyumbani mara moja na kuridhika kujifunza njia za Marafiki wa mapema.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bado miaka inavyosonga, nimekuja kushangaa juu ya roho motomoto ya Marafiki wa mapema iliyotofautishwa dhidi ya unyenyekevu wa jamaa wa kaka na dada zetu wa kisasa. Nimekatishwa tamaa na wingi wa mazungumzo dhidi ya hatua (hata yangu mwenyewe). Vita na mauaji na ufyatuaji risasi vimekuja na kupita, nimeshangaa kwa nini nguvu ya ujumbe wetu\u2014kwamba kuna njia tofauti\u2014haijaweza kuwafikia na kuwagusa wale ambao wanatafuta kweli. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/b> :<\/span> Carol anatoa hoja nzuri sana. Tunahitaji kuunga mkono watu ambao wanatazama watu wanaowapenda wakiteseka. Je! una ufahamu wa jinsi ya kufanya hivi? Ni aina gani za usaidizi zinahitajika, au kusaidia? <\/span><\/p>\n

Maoni yako yananikumbusha kuwa kuna baadhi ya sauti zinazokosekana katika makala hii. Hivi majuzi, nilisikia kutoka kwa Rafiki wa rangi, ambaye aliandika kutoka ndani ya gereza. Uraibu umeunda maisha yake, na alitaka kushiriki zaidi kuhusu hilo. Kama nilivyosema hapo awali, nakala hiyo inakosa maoni kutoka kwa watu wa rangi. Barua yake ilinikumbusha watu wengi wanaohitaji kuungwa mkono, ambao huenda ikawa vigumu kuwafikia, ambao hadithi zao zinahitaji kujulikana. <\/span><\/p>\n

Asante kwa kushiriki ”Safari za Kimya za Quakers kutoka Hill House” ya Kumah Drah (<\/span>

Ni ajabu jinsi gani kusikia maisha katika jumuiya ya Quaker katika Hill House. Sisi Wa Quaker nchini Nigeria tulijaribu bila mafanikio mwishoni mwa miaka ya 1980 na mwishoni mwa miaka ya 90 kuungana na Hill House. Tulituma jarida la Marafiki wa Nigeria, ambalo wakati huo lilikuwa na matoleo manne kwa mwaka, na hakuna jibu moja kutoka Ghana. Hatimaye tulikata tamaa. Tutafanya majaribio mapya. <\/span><\/p>\n

Mkutano wa Kisiwa cha Vancouver huko British Columbia unachangia ustawi wa mkutano wa Quaker nchini Burundi. Tulianza na pesa za kuboresha kazi yao ya matibabu ya kutibu wagonjwa wa UKIMWI. Pesa hizi zilitoka kwa wasia wa Quaker kwa ajili hiyo; wasia umetumika kikamilifu na umefanya mabadiliko katika uwezo wao wa kuwatibu wagonjwa wao. Tunaendelea kukusanya pesa kupitia hafla ndogo. Sasa wanajenga kliniki ya uzazi. Victoria Friends wamefurahia kutembelewa mara kadhaa na mmoja wa wachungaji wao. Muungano umekuwa tajiri na wenye kuthawabisha. Kanisa la Friends ni tofauti kabisa na mkutano wetu ambao haujaratibiwa, lakini tunakutana pamoja katika ibada na matendo kupitia njia ya ulimwengu ya upendo. <\/span><\/p>\n
