poem by palestinian poet khaled juma

a word from toni morrison about the need to write during these times

On this day, October 16, 1859, we remember the raid on Harpers Ferry, Virginia (now West Virginia) a two-day attempt to initiate an armed revolt against the institution and economy of chattel slavery in Southern states by taking over the U.S. arsenal at Harpers Ferry. "I...am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with Blood." wrote militant abolitionist John Brown on the day he was executed for his raid on Harpers Ferry. Brown took the arsenal & forces under Robert E. Lee, which included JEB Stuart & Thomas (Stonewall) Jackson, defeated Brown & recovered the arsenal two days later.

james baldwin, on intellectuals: “it has always seemed to me that ideas were somewhat more real to them than people[…]”

edward said, on the white supremacist and orientalist depictions (and understandings) of arabs/muslims in the west through popular media

the red nation, on the indigenous question, land back, and environmental justice. happy indigenous peoples day!

“there is no division between art and life. or politics and life. it is a particular way of defining things at a particular time.” happy birthday, amiri baraka! oct. 7th 1934 — jan. 9th 2014 ❤️
