In order to find your way, you must lose it. Generously. To learn about Bayo and catch an introductory glimpse of his work, life experiences, and motivations, read his brief account of how he became lost, a wanderer in the wilds, seeking a form of worship that has not yet been invented.

#Planetary protection means treating #celestial bodies not as #RealEstate, but as unique, potentially life-bearing worlds deserving of reverence and #NonInterference. Our first question should be “How do we observe without harming?” not “What can we take?”

The #PrimeDirective from #StarTrek is a starting point. It is intended to be an #AntiColonial non-interference ethic, albeit sabotaged by its #ColdWar context and “commensurate level of technological and/or societal development” criteria.

Frantz Fanon's grave sits in a veterans' cemetery in Aïn Kerma, Algeria. Born in Martinique, he arrived in colonial Algeria as a psychiatrist in 1953. What began as medical work became revolutionary commitment. He dismantled racist psychiatric protocols, treated torture victims and perpetrators, joined the FLN by 1956. Died at 36, seven months before independence.

La Librairie du Tiers Monde in Algiers takes its name from the city's role as a hub for liberation movements in the 1960s-70s. When Algeria privatized bookshops in the 1990s, six employees collectively bought this one. They kept it open during the civil war despite death threats. Today it remains a key space for political and literary life.

Hoezo is #Fenian een scheldwoord? Behalve in een koloniaal denkende setting? Mijn bet bet bet overgrootvader was er een, en daar ben ik verdomd trots op.

Kneecap claimt scheldwoord als ereteken: waarom ‘Fenian’ meer is dan een albumtitel

Ze rappen in het Iers-Gaelisch, dragen bivakmutsen en combineren rauwe club-bangers met messcherpe politieke analyses. Maar bovenal: ze maken de Britse overheid pislink en jagen rechtse nationalisten op stang. Ook op hun nieuwste plaat, Fenian, plant Kneecap een knietje in het kruis van het establishment.

De Morgen
The #DailyWorker published, #ThisDayInHistory in 1952, a photo of a smiling British soldier holding the severed head of an #anticolonial rebel in colonial #Malaysia. Mainstream media ignored it, as this was routine and continued 'til 1960. Still believe in the liberal media myth?
