“Those of us who still want to live and think as humans can step aside and create #subaltern #communities that value and reward and inculcate productive effort.”
#Power hates that it needs a #subaltern #counterpublic to innovate and drive more profitable returns.

mâdunun sanatı

the art of the subaltern

"bize mâdunun (eline fırsat geçtiğinde) kendi öznelliğinden, gündeminden vazgeçmeyeni, ana akıma kapılmayıp bulunduğu yeri kaybetmeyeni, dilsizlerin dili olmak için tüm yaratıcı güçlerini harekete geçireni lazım."

"ilişki biçimleri keşkelerle, umarımlarla, lütfenlerle, nolurlarla yahut değiş tonton! deyince değişmez. yaratım, sunum, dolaşım biçimlerinin değişimiyle değişir."

#subaltern

Sıcak öğle güneşinde 2 satır

Madun olarak temel hakları geniş muktedir toplum tarafından alınıp yavaş veya hızlı ölüme mahkûm edilen, ama hayatta bir şekilde kalan, kalabilmiş, madun birey ve azınlıkların eğip bükmeden hakikate yakın durarak konuşması gerekir diye düşünüyorum. Elzem olan yapısal direnişi gündemden düşürmemeli de. Madun öznellikleri ve durumlarından ana akıma ve kurumlara dönülemez, eklemlenmemeli iktidara.

The lifecycle of Rome was: Republic, Empire, then a millennia of Theocratic State, before capitalist #institutions tolerated #governance, economic #innovation, and #culture exchange by the #subaltern #counterpublic in their midst.

If that pattern of #history is applied to the #American Republic, the Creepy Weirdos intend to speed-run…all of it.

"Actually Existing Geopolitics of Urban Knowledge Production. Questioning the ‘From Anywhere’ of Urban Theorising"
By F. Governa & C. Iacovone

"the #geography of the places studied contradicts any claims of post/decolonising urban theory, of ‘urban theorising from anywhere’, of Southern, #subaltern, alternative urban perspectives, and so on."

i have finally begun to actively use the history magazine at fedia.io > the history magazine is a reddit-like community, very much resembling lemmy communities > the history magazine has been dormant for a long time and was basically used as a scraper focussing on history-related microblogging posts (see here), with a sweet spot for classical music and ... punk rock > please don't ask me why - i have been witnessing this from the start without me interfering - i only added two music-related hashtags to the magazine!

History - Fedia

an mbin magazine for all things related to history

People insist on finding out the hard way that Black #American #culture is the source of #subaltern #creativity that the corporate creative, #advertising, and #marketing industry feeds off, remora-like.

Today is the anniversary of the victory of a militant struggle in France.
White men of left and right coordinated to push young brown and black women back to their rightful place: subaltern.

October 2003: Lycée Henri Wallon in Aubervilliers expelled two sisters for wearing headscarves. A deafening political and media controversy ensued. The polemic obtained a law enacted on 15 March 2004, that banned girls wearing headscarves from schools.

Nathalie (in 2015): "I have children to feed and I’m looking for work, so I’m taking off my headscarf. I have no choice. No choice."
