nonsacred

With utter disregard for the Indigenous ways of thinking about the land, both sacred and nonsacred, the colonizers viewed all the land and resources they saw as things to own and to exploit.

You’re simultaneously distanced from the religious element, but you’re also thinking: Well, all it takes is a hint of a wedding for this nonsacred space to feel more imbued with sacred energy, if you will, than the architecture of some churches.

The division of sacred from nonsacred space may seem arbitrary, and yet the division matters to families and to those who wish to pay their respects without treading on the dead.

On Sunday night, the Middle Church Jerriese Johnson Gospel Choir offers an evensong of sorts, with a repertory that covers traditional gospel tunes as well as nonsacred music.

Meanwhile whips were cracking over bullocks as these nonsacred males helped drag bamboo and build Congress City.
