Linda Gordon, an NYU history professor, thoughtfully examines what she calls the Klan’s “second coming,” in her 2017 book …because it #deconstructs the old adage, the more things #change the more they remain the same. The past is a roadmap to the present.
Gordon argues that the #Klan represents how some of the most primitive political passions are rooted in fear and hatred of otherness – and a willingness to exploit these sentiments for purpose, power and profit.

@JohnShirley2023 Just trying to reconcile the #absurdity of life through creative expression. I'm fascinated by #construction and deconstruction as it applies to #MassMedia, the #Arts, and #SocietalNorms.
We are hardwired to construct patterns & and find meaning. #AsemicArt, for example, takes the #CodesAndConventions of #Writing and #Text and #Deconstructs them. The viewer has to interpret them, trying to find meaning in #Asemic configurations. 🙂
