Subaltern Spaces

A kiss is a transcendence
that supersedes reason
positivist logic and rationality
just when we think 1+ 1 = 2
and we tanked down
a kiss transforms 1 + 1
from 2 to 20

Which is why
there is always hope
in life
even at the bottoms of the oceans

Another, democratic, world is possible. With structural change and collective action grounded in critical theory, queer ecology, and historically informed action in the long now.

12 minutes of Naomi Klein - always worth a watch…

From: @criticalpolicy

Naomi Klein: "One of the things that we can learn from Zohran #Mamdani is.. he moonlights as a #history #professor.. actually educating people about radical history, because we don’t learn it in school.. people in Canada generally don’t know the history of #public ownership,”

And "we perform best when we actually have to fight for our ideas."

📍 Naomi Klein unpacks #world affairs and #politics, New Democratic Party (NDP) leadership #election in Canada, and importance of Avi Lewis becoming the new NDP leader on March 29

"And so, we really haven't had that for a long time; politicians who are really able to name the #system itself, and I honestly think it's the only way we can bring people back,"

"I think hard times are coming, when we will be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now, and can see through our fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies, to other ways of being. And even imagine some real grounds for hope. We will need writers who can remember freedom."

“Resistance and change often begin in #art, and very often in our art, the art of words.”

- Ursula K. Le Guin (1929-2018)
