You have encountered a Great White Beast!
The purpose of reconciliation is not to reinscribe settler virtues, nor to cater to comfortable narratives of innocence.
The challenge of conducting a testimonial reading is that it has us face the "Great White Beasts" of our own bodies in action, instead of allowing us to merely "pass on" the message of recognition under the obscured positionality of "solidarity"[1].
Rather than removing ourselves through detached solidarity, we face being just as intra-dependently entangled with the history of quota setting as we consider the other to be.
You have stumbled upon another Vista: "Becoming Other".
