I made a graphic for Women’s Studies Student Organization at my college that spotlights Dr. Angela Davis, Black, queer, pro-working class abolitionist and activist – and I’m pretty proud of it so I wanted to share :). For the rest of summer, our organization is doing weekly action items to support the Black Lives Matter movement – and this week’s action item is to listen to Dr. Angela Davis, read her works, access her speeches, and educate yourself.
Follow @wssouga on IG for our other action items and resources to support the Black Lives Matter movement.
“I want us to be doing things, prolonging life’s duties as much as we can. I want death to find me planting my cabbages, neither worrying about it nor the unfinished gardening.” ― Michel de Montaigne
i’ve been thinking a lot about the insane dehumanization of north koreans lately (they’re not allowed to smile, they’re all brainwashed, they would let their family die to save a picture of their “dear” leader etc) so here’s another post with pictures from the dprk of north koreans just… being people
Podium, 1999, Wolfgang Tillmans
everything everywhere all at once is about intergenerational trauma. about depression and passive suicidality and the gravitational appeal of nothingness. about aging, getting older in your twenties and getting older in your fifties. about the specific hurt mothers can cause their daughters and daughters their mothers. about the harsh reality of the immigrant experience and the american dream. but it’s mostly about kindness and family and it’s about choosing to sit at home talking about taxes with someone who loves you, and it’s about telling your daughter that you’d choose her over the entire universe, and it’s about how even in the universes where life didn’t form, love can still exist. and it’s really all of that at once.
