Intersectionality

Patricia Hill Collins

@Sirma_Bilge Capitalist/imperialist systems always co-opt the language of their critics in order to create the illusion of having responded to their critiques. The important thing is not to mistake corporate appropriations of "intersectionality" for the real thing, imho.

@TwichellSydney @ArbuckleBanjo @TheWerelizard @Nexier @DobermanKathy @Zennistrad @Sh0wnie_Bantzy_ @ReporterAshley I think the idea that the "pharisees" had Jesus crucified is the seed of a lot of the hatred, tbh. Jesus was executed by the Roman empire. Elaine Pagels's The Origin of Satan is an accessible resource on how the blame shifted to Jews as a strategy to minimize Roman responsibility

Music friends: I'm reading Graham Lock's 1990 interview with Sun Ra in @thewiremagazine & I'm curious about the manuscript Sun Ra gives him to read. It's called "The Information Book," it's 500 pages long and was given to Sun Ra by "space people." Has this book been published?
