Early Words Liberation Meditation is Claudia Alick’s daily practice of journaling, reflection, and collective political education. Each morning begins on EarlyWords.io, a community-built journaling platform, followed by a live or private meditation on liberation, justice, grief, joy, disability, technology, and the state of the world.
Sometimes the practice appears as a livestream (often as a talking moon in the sky), sometimes it unfolds quietly offline, but always it is grounded in disability justice, critical inquiry, and the belief that everyday meaning-making is power.
Across the years, the meditations have covered:
- Media literacy and manufactured consent
- Disability justice and labor
- Racial justice and abolition
- Artificial intelligence, surveillance, and tech sovereignty
- Grief, ecology, climate, and collective care
- Narrative power, language, and resistance
- Joy, imagination, and long-term movement visioning
Early Words Liberation Meditation is a sustained record of resistance and reflection—an evolving public/ private practice that documents what it means to stay human, awake, and connected in a time of profound change.
