Film - Invitation of the Dark Goddess
Why do we learn to be afraid of the dark?
Let us make sure this perspective is not rooted in racism
and disrespect towards the wisdom of the night.
Embrace the dark unknown.
And may it remind you that your possibility is as infinite
as the cosmos.
-Lucile Henderson
