“The Talking Feather is a communication device used by various tribes to ensure a person’s right to speak without interruption from others.”

When the Feather rests against your palm, would you
talk out, or keep your thoughts inside, afraid
to rage at injustice for fear of retribution?
If the truthsayers of the world are silent,
if we no longer speak out, who will
raise their voices for those who cannot?

So very true, Carol. Too many people have been passing around the feather, afraid to speak out and stand up. Yeah, New York Times, CNN, etc., I’m looking at you.
Thanks for commenting! I admit it can be hard sometimes to speak out when the threat is so real.
