The Origin of Matter
welcome to the origin of matter (OM)
this space is for communities, networks, and organizations who are ready to stop tweaking broken systems—and start building liberated ones.
You’re not just resisting. You’re imagining. You’re creating. You’re co-manifesting. Because while resisting injustice is necessary, imagination is what builds the future.
