The Architecture of Dignity vs. The Industry of Dehumanization
At Divine Soul Hypnotherapy, our mission is to help individuals reclaim their internal stability and shed the distortions that prevent them from seeing their true worth. Recently, a visual distortion of the most atrocious order was released into the collective consciousness: a social media post from the highest office in the land depicting the Former President and First Lady in a sub-human, archaic manner.
We will not name the author. There is an ancient philosophical truth that to name a thing is to give it power. We prefer to let shadows wither in the silence of their own irrelevance.
However, we will not be silent about the act.
This is not a matter of red versus blue. This is not a campaign issue or a political debate. This is a humanity issue. It is a matter of the heart and of moral compass or lack thereof.
The use of nineteenth-century tropes to diminish Black excellence is a calculated assault, not just on Former President and First Lady Obama, who flawlessly exemplified the highest standard of leadership, class, and the structural integrity of the American soul. It is an attack on the collective human nervous system. It is a virus designed to induce a state of fight-or-flight, attempting to destabilize the spirit of a people who have already ascended. When such dehumanization is broadcast from the most powerful position in the country, it creates a fracture in the psychological safety of every citizen. Not just Black and Brown people, but every citizen whose own sense of security is built upon the integrity of our highest institutions.
We must be clear. Organizations and individuals who remain silent in the face of such a breach have indeed spoken. Neutrality in the presence of dehumanization is an endorsement of the act.
Divine Soul Hypnotherapy stands as a fortress for those who refuse to be diminished. As a sanctuary for those who are healing, we stand with the creators, the corporations, and the global citizens who recognize that our attention, our voice, and our resources are our most potent tools for change. We celebrate the standard of poise, intellect, and grace that no caricature can ever touch.
We choose excellence. We choose dignity. We choose the healing of the soul.
In Sovereignty and Strength,
