The Husk By Jasmine Stole Weiss - Introducing: Currents
Over the next few Thursdays, The Husk will be releasing a series of essays, audio, transcripts, and visual reflections from some of the fellows of the 2024 Resilient Pacific Islands Leaders (RPIL) fellowship. The reflections will be part of a collection called Currents.¹ ² After tomorrow, you can find the posts here. They’ll be added periodically. Subscribers will also get posts from Currents delivered to their inboxes. I was fortunate to be selected to be part of this year’s RPIL cohort. I knew early on that I’d have something to write about the experience, and a few days after we’d all returned home (while I was feeling sentimental and måhålang for lack of a better word) I asked the group if they’d like to share their thoughts. Thankfully, they were agreeable. The first reflection will be from Kinless Karovo, who I absolutely adore. It’ll come out tomorrow. These posts will supplement our regular Husk posts. So that’s where we are. That’s what Currents is. I have a feeling you’ll enjoy what the fellows have to say. As always, thank you for reading. -Jasmine 1 So the abbreviation of Resilient Pacific Islands Leaders, RPIL, often was spoken as “ripple.” PIDP held a webinar with last year’s RPIL cohort titled From a Ripple to a Wave, a play on the fellowship name. That kind of stuck with us and “from a ripple to a wave” was oft repeated among the cohort. Not wanting to totally rip off that idea but seeking a connection to the ripple/wave theme, I opted to call this collection Currents. I rationalized: Our thoughts are the currents swirling beneath the surface, influenced by factors in our environment. 2 This newsletter is not affiliated with the East-West Center or the Pacific Islands Development Program. We’re just a bunch of friends who wanted to share our experiences after participating in the 2024 RPIL fellowship. ✌️ If you liked this post from The Husk, like it, share it on your newsfeed, or forward it to someone who might also like this. Kmal mesulang, kalahngan, thank you, thank you. |
