To me, this is what love can look like! Preserving knowledge. He realises that knowledge is valuable & precious & some violent, bloodthirsty people see no value in learning. Too blinded. Learning would quench their bloodlust in some cases. By safeguarding these books others can benefit, how kind💖.
Friend shared this video of a man unveiling the library he hid when he fled Damascus in 2011. It’s incredible

You know important movement elders are indigent in terrible health? Not glam at all & they need community support. Dhoruba bin Wahad is a Black Panther & thinker, I read his REVOLUTION IN THESE TIMES out last year & was going to interview him for radio before he fell ill. Here’s his mutual aid call.

There is something so beautiful about you as a human being that *this* this small detail, stuck in your flesh like a thorn in your palm & now you're like "yeah he was always a dodgy one!" To be honest knowing the lore is kinda important! I resonate so hard with having these gripes w ppl. Smoke, folk
I have found him distasteful since he wrote that song for the Hobbit movie and wrote the line:
"And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Keep watching over Durin's sons"
The line should be Durin's folk. It sounds better AND that's what dwarves are called. I'm finally vindicated.

Woah!
In Paris, I visited museums with an eye toward histories of race and colonialism - Quai Branly and La Musée Nationale de l’Histoire de l’Immigration. Finally saw, for the first time, the Code Noir with my own eyes, a 17th century set racist French laws that I learned wasn’t repealed until THIS YEAR

And the things is this will have no impact on the racists who will continue to be racist
Just a reminder as the new academic year kicks off - the UK government has deliberately, ruthlessly, throttled the recruitment of international students, solely to pander to racists, and the resultant 25%+ fall in numbers can and will only accelerate some universities into bankruptcy.

Those of us who, at the time, saw and foresaw the true horror of the escalations underway will go on having been absolutely right, and in this foul world, it will go on not mattering a damn.
I cannot describe the brokenness I felt reading this from the Haaretz piece.
The hostages were betrayed by everyone; Israeli leaders, the diaspora leaders & their orgs, the entire pro-Israel industrial complex, and by far and away the millions of people who cried "hostages" to support a genocide.

Thank you @gilltav.bsky.social for reminding us all of the Police response in 2021 👇 when some 40 environmental activists of Insulate Britain blocked the Port of Dover: 39 arrests.
Compare that to yesterday when 200-400 fascist paramilitaries intimidated Dover town and blocked the Port: 0 arrests.

Precisely my thoughts. I'm also staunchly against AI in most things but esp. creative fields.
Damn that's wild because I don't want to *see* a movie like that either so maybe that movie just shouldn't get made?

Paul Schrader Says He Turned To AI Because “No Black Actors Wanted To Play In A Movie Where There Are No Good Black People”
Paul Schrader Says He Turned To AI Because “No Black Actors Wanted To Play In A Movie Where There Are No Good Black People”
Just days after Paul Schrader revealed that he plans to make his long-gestating crime noir “Three Guns At Dawn” entirely with AI-generated performers, the filmmaker has explained why he abandoned human actors in the first place. According to Schrader, Black actors rejected the original version because all three of its Black protagonists were criminals. His solution? Make the movie without them.
Schrader has spent the past week gradually clarifying his plans for “Three Guns At Dawn.” As The Playlist previously reported, the filmmaker originally conceived the South Central Los Angeles noir around three Black brothers—a corrupt cop, a drug trafficker, and a third criminal—with Antoine Fuqua attached to produce.

He died aged 45.
