Because we are in the age of support our vets and
everyone wants to hear the story of descendants understanding and accepting
their veteran parents, where is the room for the complexity that one can still
be wounded, that the war never ended over here, that veterans are still needing
to work through their own mental health needs and it trumps their children's
voices.
I know each of us is responsible for our own mental
health, that we can't lay blame on
anyone for not seeking our own health, so the project is a way for me to find
that work for recovery, for being productive,
and for criticism against unethical war, America where it needs to be
blamed, to own the grave mistakes. Just as Germany has done, we need to own it.
Where our parents won't own it, we will.
That is what this project is for me. These aren't my
words I am saying. I can be
disassociated and heal from it.
To get me through this time when he is being his
cutoff self.
