2016 shocked the world and we didn’t (really) react – why?
We’ve forgotten how to feel. Numb. Dumb. It’s like we’ve swallowed our tongues.

To roll over, shut the front door, reduce our emotions to taps and clicks.
Denying our humanity. Diminishing hardship to a shrug.
What we need is to re-sensitise.
