2012

Hello.

I’ve never really had much original content on my tumblr,so I decided that since I’ve always wanted to improve my writing, one of my new year’s resolutions is that I should write more on my tumblr/publicly.

Here’s to anyone who cares.Here’s for 2012.

Happy New Year everyone.

“Being a leftist is a calling, not a career; it’s a vocation, not a profession. It means you are concerned about structural violence, you are concerned about exploitation at the work place, you are concerned about institutionalized contempt against gay brothers and lesbian sisters, hatred against peoples of color, and the subordination of women. It means that you are willing to fight against, and to try to understand the sources of social misery at the structural and institutional levels, as well as at the existential and personal levels. That’s what it means to be a leftist; that’s why we choose to be certain kinds of human beings.” - Cornel West

DagSeoul: Positions, Populations, Punk, Poetics: A quick note on proofreading

dagseoul:

Any one who criticizes your written work because you didn’t proofread well, or you routinely misspell, or you don’t always correctly use apostrophes, or you implement the wrong “there”, or you use a sloppy or non-traditional style: any one who criticizes you for these things, is an asshole.

General Strike: The Children’s Brigade

"I know not everyone who says, “Stop being so sensitive” comes from a place of privilege, but the phrase “Stop being so sensitive” comes from the place of ultimate privilege. It comes from a place where no one has ever erased your identity and experiences. It comes from a place where your concerns are taken seriously and the concerns of others not like you are dismissed as secondary. It comes from a place where you haven’t thought about and acknowledged the fundamental humanity in every other person, regardless of race, sex, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, gender orientation, or disability. It comes from a thoughtless place."

The Art of Paul Kuczynski. This is the best series I’ve seen from an artist in awhile. Each painting is rich with symbolism and political justice.

So let’s just recap this year in American justice fail:

uprightcitizens:

  • Straight white woman guilty of murdering her own child: acquitted.
  • Straight, wealthy white man guilty of raping a working-class woman of color: case dismissed.
  • Innocent black man: death by lethal injection.
