I Hope It’s Just The Water

Video this

I tried to get through my 1:00 p.m. meeting on Thursday early enough to catch some of the most recent contempt proceedings in this case. You can get additional information about what’s going on here, here, here, here, and here, but I’ll give you a single, run-on-sentence summary of what people are r ...

On Mass Mobilizations, “Community”, and Making Change

14 hours ago by scamuic

The following is a rough exposition of my ideas on direct action, organizing, community building, and how we can begin rethinking tearing down the nuclear industrial complex. Let me restate that it is ROUGH. I will continue working on this and restructuring the argument, adding in additional referen ...

Northwestern 2009

Another blackface incident. Another white student who is not pictured also dressed in blackface. This is apparently a repeat of 2007, in which two Ph.D. students dressed in blackface. The university’s statement? Yeah, it’s offensive but it didn’t break any rules. Among other things, what this tells ...

Laughter is not always the best medicine

1 day ago by writerwriting

One of my biggest turn offs is cruelty (take note, future suitors). I have a strong dislike for mean people. I have very little tolerance for people who think a person’s appearance or economic status is fair game for a laugh. I absolutely cannot stand that People of Walmart website. I absolutely can ...

Look closer, part 4 – Not being a thing means not being a symbol

1 day ago by sanabituranima

I’ve done a very bad thing. The worst thing is, it’s one of those bad things that is very hard to describe and sounds silly and trivial when I describe it, but it is really bad. Even though I think/hope that my victim may not have noticed, or may not have realised how bad/silly my motives were (shou ...

stop dividing that house against itself!

2 days ago by olga

Retroactive jerkiness note the second: in retrospect, I think that comparing disability studies and trans studies was not ok of me at all, and didn’t clarify the point I was trying to in any way. Which is namely we often recognize these things as separate, even though there is a big umbrella there. ...

The line, where is it?

2 days ago by Niamh ~ ばかきつね ~

I worry a lot about being a good person and how others see me, and of course am mortified that I ever may seem to be a boorish horrible foul person. And I squirm around sometimes on my days where I'm sucked into the blogosphere, as I see hints that I've been more privileged than I may have previousl ...

The problem with “privilege”

2 days ago by jane brazen

I’ve been grappling with this a lot lately. On one hand, those most involved in sex workers’ rights are those with more privilege (economically, educationally, racially), while on the other hand, privilege is used to discount their arguments and experiences. I’m struggling to find a way that acknowl ...

stop before you say it

2 days ago by Charlotte

I saw a programme on Channel 4 the other evening called The Events: How Racist are You? which was, essentially, a repeat of Jane Elliot’s ‘blue-eyed/brown-eyed’ anti-racism exercise with a group of English people. I don’t think it quite worked, because Britain has never had a system of institutional ...
