Lyonel Perabo reviews the new book by Dan Coultas, “Heathenry and the Sea.”
Twelve years ago to the day, I boarded a flight from the Oslo-Gardenmoen airport in south Norway. I was heading for Tromsø, some 1100 kilometers (roughly 700 miles) north, where I was to start a new year of study and a new chapter in my life. This plane ride was but the last leg of a much longer trip which started all the way in the southern French town of Beziers, where I lived, before leading to Paris, my birth place, and then Oslo, all through a combination of high speed trains, overnight bus rides, and ferries. When I arrived in Tromsø, it was a typical Arctic autumn day, where massive gray clouds had only cold winds to compete with for the domination of the skies. As I left the airport, I grabbed unto my two massive suitcases, and headed for the other side of the island, where the campus was located.
When the Hurst, Texas community realized the Stedfast Baptist Church relocated to and was spreading its message of hate, the Pagans and other residents of the town organized protests.
The South African Pagan Rights Alliance (SAPRA) and their annual Touchstone Advocacy campaign respond to a recent article that has on “witch-hunt” terminology and approaches in the fight to stop persecutions.
The Wild Hunt wishes all of its readers a happy and blessed solstice.
