The Shroud Thief

An Iraqi Folk Tale translated by Fateh Kassab
An Iraqi Folk Tale
Translated by: Fateh Kassab
© 2011 by THE BIRD

Once upon a time in ancient times there was a village on the Euphrates. The people in that village had a big problem that they could not solve. The graves were always opened and the shrouds stolen. One day a man died and as usual he was buried in the cemetery of the village. But his grave was not dug in the second day or the day after.

The people of the village concluded that he was the one who violated the sanctity of graves and began to speak in bad words as his sons passed by. Sons of the dead man curse their father who steals coffins. Life became hard for them in the village. They met to think of what is happening and try to solve the problem and return to normal life in the village. The eldest said that he didn't know how his father got all that money even though he didn't work. The second said he would never leave his house because he can't look in the eyes of the people of the village because of shame.

The third reviled the people in bad words. Suddenly the youngest said I found a way which makes the people forgive our father and forget what he did to them.

On the second day the people found a number of graves dug, the shrouds stolen and a wooden dowel is put in the ass hole of the corpse. After that, whenever the sons of that man passed in the streets of the village, the people would say may God forgive their father; he never did such an ugly thing.

  2. I think this is a very difficult decision to make. The law gives us freedom. t shirt maker Freedom does come at a cost to us and with that we need boundaries. That quite an amazing phenomenon, cycling t shirts that it turned into essentially its opposite. Now in an organizing meeting, any discussion that takes place between a white person and a person of color will be tense and guarded, because at any time the white person may be accused of white privilege, and thus denounced for bringing irreconcilable political interests into the group. That is a very different kind of politics, and not one that tends to result in open strategic discussions, building trust between activists, or effectively broadening towards a mass movement.
