An inspiring piece from Indo-Fijian and queer artist, Shyama Kuver. The quote from Mariame should be our collective guiding light as we face the horrors around us.

Ahhhhhh this #MariameKaba presentation on zines as community archives was thrilling. Loved the connections with early pamphlets and magazines made by Black people in the US, and her thoughts on the relevance of DIY publishing in, uh, high censorship environments.
Was glad to have finished my small batch of #PostcardsToVoters I’m hoping that all our little individual efforts make a difference here and there

Though we're in February of 2025 I don't think it's too late to say that my current favorite book is "No More Police" by #blackfeminist #MariameKaba and #AndreaRitchie
Unfortunately, I had to return "Let this radicalize you " to the library. I'll get it again later.

“Action is a practice of hope. Put another way, hope is generated through action. ‘Doing’ allows us to derive experience and meaning - it is through doing that we experience feeling.…
So I wake up every single day and decide to practice hope.”
I aspire to practice hope like Mariame Kaba.

Now would be a timely moment for people to read "We Do This Till We Free Us", by Mariame Kaba.
Finished _No More Police: A Case for Abolition_.
A great introduction to the ideas behind and goals for police and prison abolition. No matter your stance on abolition, this book provides a helpful context for understanding.
