“I have spent so much energy in my life and activism fighting against things I don’t want,” writes Meagan Fischer. “I think any move toward being in a more conscientious relationship with the land and beings around us is a step toward repairing the schism between much of human civilization and the rest of this planet.”

TWH — The current White House policy of zero tolerance for immigrants and asylum seekers has resulted in forced separation of families, and now a modified policy is resulting in the indefinite incarceration of families. Many people, including Pagans, have publicly opposed these positions. The Wild Hunt has collected statements by Pagan groups and individuals, which show how Pagan values and virtues can inform current political discussion. Pagans, however, are not a monolithic group, and cannot even agree on a definition of Paganism. These statements are neither representative of all Pagans, nor are they meant to be.
