Cimarrón
Maroon
— Mikhaela Drullard
“To inhabit animality, to reclaim beauty, to celebrate existence. Because to exist outside the
system is, in itself, an act of revenge.”
“To be cimarrón was not to be a runaway, but to be a sovereign. It was to declare your body, your community, and your future as territories no longer subject to the colonial order. The act of cimarronaje was the active, continuous
practice of inventing a free life in a world
predicated on your bondage.”
