Kia ora. Thinking, it is what our minds do twenty four seven and is something, we as any species cannot escape. The Oxford Dictionary defines “thinking” as the process of considering or reasoning. 2020 has obviously been our most challenging year for the generations here at Black Magazine. We can now understand, the thought and struggle of past generations in times of unease. The title of this issue resonates with our teams, friends and whanau very strongly. We are all thinking of each other as we all lock down in our own parts of the world, unable to leave or connect in person. Our teams have come together to create this beautiful issue from Paris, Milan, Lisbon, Brisbane, Sydney, Auckland and Christchurch. It injects confidence that we can still survive during a challenging time if we all think of each other.
We are forever grateful.
nui te aroha,
