Nå er vi atter i slutten av en uke, men springbrett til en ny ubrukt uke. Hva jeg har tenkt å lese har jeg ikke blitt enig med meg selv enda, diskusjonen pågår.

Etter å ha gått bananas i mai og pakker hentet på posten har jeg noe å velge imellom. Får mye inspirasjon her på Bokelskere og takker dere for det. Ønskelisten min øker, ikke minskes.

Etter å ha lest en post om hekser & heksebrenning på FB er jeg ute etter info. Ingen hekser ble brent på bål bare kvinner. Hvordan en kunne ha ett slikt tenkesett at der overhode fantes hekser forstår jeg overhode ikke og det gjorde ikke ettertiden som avsluttet heksejakten

Do you know how many witches the Inquisition burned..
None of them.
witches don't exist.
It wasn't witches who burned..
it was WOMEN.
Beautiful..
cultured and intelligent WOMEN.
Women accused of having water in the well..
or for cultivating and caring for their beautiful plantation.
They were convicted of having a birthmark..
for being skillful with herbal medicine..
for being tall..
black or red-haired.
They condemned those who showed a strong connection to nature..
those who danced or sang.
The ones who looked happy.
To those who looked independent and powerful.
For the Holy Inquisition and many other groups throughout history..
any free-spirited woman should have been burned or thrown into the water.
If she floated..
She was guilty and executed.
If she was sinking and drowning..
she was declared innocent..
and then her soul would go to heaven.
Many thousands of them were thrown off cliffs ..
or placed in deep holes in the ground..
by beings who felt superior to them,..
almost gods.
Why am I even writing this.
Because knowing history is important when it comes to building a new society..
and a new world.
It is urgent to give voice to all women..
in honour of those who were humiliated..
beaten..
tortured and massacred.
Long live..
to independent..
strong and powerful women.
It wasn't witches who burned..
it was WOMEN

Kuriositet/undring er at kvinner ble brent for andre "kriminaliteter" og ikke hengt, fordi å unngå at folk kikket under de hengte kvinners skjørter.

Interresant om heksebrenning. Håper du har en god helg !
