      And it has its roots in some kind of indigenous spirituality and ways of knowing the world that continue on in modified forms within the structures of speaking to the land and built environment and speaking to oneself while in contact with the presence of the commodity

      There’s a deep spirituality involved in Kindo’s method of rearticulating alternative ways of knowing and being in a decidedly capilalist world that begins with gratitude and ends with a speculative future (is this something you want to bring into the future with you?)

      Kondo replaces speculative capital (this will be worth something to me in the future) with speculative embodiment (do I want carry this with me into the future) that holds central the body as the driving mechanism of futurity.

      I’m not saying it’s a perfect philosophy nor am I saying that it’s going to abolish capitalism — but when the response from the JA family is not “thanks for helping us get rid of stuff” but literally “we see everything differently now” I understand change to be taking place

      And that change is occurring at a very deep level. So this is my attempt to really codify what that change is, and why it is so special to me The JA family is my family. Their trauma is my trauma. That shit is so us. I just. Feel. A lot. That holding on. It’s very specific.

      The baseball cards. The Christmas decorations. This is the trauma of internment, and I recognize it. To let go of the excess of the abundance of your American iconography and to reveal the diary of your parents is special and metaphorical on so many levels

      For JAs internment is a psychic burden that continues to play out in claims to belonging that can never truly arrive because race is the wound that just keeps on wounding — and under capitalism of course this wound manifests at the site of the commodity

      So to say: I will discard these nutcrackers is also to say: I am moving towards closing the wound that cannot close, but at least I am trying, at least I am moving, at least I believe more in my body’s feelings now than in my bodys potential to feel in the future

      A return to the land is a return to the body. A return to the body is a return to the present. When we are grounded in the present, we can accurately engage with the future. When we are engaged with the future we can reconcile the past.

      This is the change I read when I hear them say, “our perspective has changed so much” It’s like something has passed; its the ghost of internment (“there are three generations of belongings here,” they said) Three generations of belonging(s); we are learning to let go.

      Replying to @kazumiochin

      I saw that episode and thought so much about Hisaye Yamamoto's short story collection Seventeen Syllables and Other Stories. The house was a history of 20th c. Japanese-American life.
