Dynamite Hill is a space dedicated to discourse. ​ We are all shaped by our experiences. The spaces that we live, the people that we know and the places that we go are all apart of who we are and what we have the potential to become. Conversely, we are also the sum of everything that we are not. What we do not know has a greater influence over us than the things that we do. We were told that ignorance is bliss. That is such a beautiful, putrid lie. Ignorance is captivity. Ignorance is lazy. ​ We owe it to ourselves to explore the world outside of ourselves. We must live is a constant state of battle. Our wars are internal. Our adversaries are our blind dogmas, the faithless institutions that we subscribe to and the comforts of our ignorance and privileges. We must be aware and we must be critical as we move consciously through. We owe it to ourselves to be critically engaged in matters that affect us and the world around us, while managing to not take ourselves too seriously. We owe it to share our ideas, thoughts, and feelings and engage with others in the hopes of attaining a more perfect dialogue. ​ This is why we are here. This is Dynamite Hill.
