An incredible, crucial new book (with cover by Practise)
"Crazy as Hell" by Hoke S. Glover III and @V_Efua_Prince, with an introduction by Freedom Reads Founder & CEO @dwaynebetts, is out today! "Crazy as Hell" is a refreshing, insightful, sacrilegious take on African American history.

Quoting @million_book here: When Freedom Reads Founder & CEO Reginald Dwayne Betts worked as a librarian in prison, he was paid 54 cents an hour. That’s “crazy as hell.” And what’s “crazy as hell” is that Norton donated 54 cents to FR for every copy of the book in the first run.

RIP Jamie Reed who laid out the first English translation of ‘Leaving the 20th Century- the incomplete works of the Situationist International’. The innovative collage images he created would subsequently be included in the Sex Pistols’ ‘Never mind the Bollocks’ Album.

“With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness, today, the majority pulls the ripcord and announced ‘colorblindness for all’ by legal fiat. But deeming race irrelevant in law does not make it so in life.” Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, dissenting in the SCOTUS affirmative action case.

New work: project art direction and naming for Klim
Martina Plantijn is a better Plantin. Informed by the workhorse qualities of Pierpont’s typeface and expanding upon his research of 16th century type at the Plantin-Moretus Museum in Antwerp, Martina Plantijn makes decisive digital updates across its roman and italic cuts.⁠

Paul St. Hilaire makes nothing but straight up genius, timeless shit, and is responsible for singing on my favorite song of all time. First two singles off this one as an indicator, this is ROTY contender.
For the first time since 2006, Paul St. Hilaire (AKA Tikiman) presents a solo album – 100% Tiki. kynantrecords.bandcamp.com/a…

My new hobby: finding public domain images that Getty sells for $500, locating hi-rez scans of their original publications, cropping and cleaning them up, adding metadata, and uploading them to Wikimedia Commons. First one: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/F…
