Op-ed special report: Remembering in #thesetimes #LawrenceFerlinghetti (1919 - 2021): a builder of spaces for freedom

📍https://www.agos.com.tr/tr/haber/ferlinghettis-legacy-the-freedom-outside-echo-chambers-25656

Lawrence Ferlinghetti, who passed away at the age of 101 on February 22, 2021 in San Francisco, built a #bookstore and #independent publisher, taking #poetry outside the academic #ivorytower and helping to #democratize American #literature. He defended the right to freedom of expression, and framed poetry as an insurgent #art; poetry had to be lived!

I just want to thank all of the banal and inane humorous accounts and posters which give us a needed distraction in what feel like unprecedented depraved times.

Thanks for reminding us that distraction was always a part of the problem, and disallowing the slow, maddening, bubbling combination of frustration, disgust, despair, and anger to reach a critical half life that actually prompts difficult action is how we got here.
