i'm so glad you synthesized your feelings about dc, your relationship, and your political transformation in this way, it's so relatable and hauntingly beautiful (to someone who lives in houston lol). i've only gotten to visit DC a few times - one of which was when i ended up spending 3 days at GW uni's encampment for gaza, and it made me fall in love with the camaraderie there. a lot of my own transformations have happened in the south, i plan to move to the east coast soon (inshallah) and an already imagining how it'll feel to leave all i love behind
I left DC at almost the same time as you seem to have after eight defining years of my life there, including the Washington to DC shift, and found that you have so beautifully expressed all that I’m feeling
incredible essay, I wish you the best in Minneapolis. DC will always welcome you with open hearts - the real DC love is sharing the love for the people and community that is made up of all walks of life. Steadfast till the victory comrade 🫶🏻
