Struggling with how to structure my essay, so much reading material and utterly fascinating studies being done.

I love how autumn shows us its transition, the colours and hues. The slow winter arising, the decay, winter slowly consumes us with the night sky. Happy October. #autumn

Does scrubbing off Banksyโ€™s mural silence protest or make the message louder?

My next essay will be looking at these three amazing theorists, their analytical discourses on cultural production. In particular, Francesca Sobande & her questions of the โ€˜globalโ€™ black digital โ€˜voicesโ€™ of women in Britain. I will be examining two case studies, an exhibition & podcast(s).

@deanspade.bsky.social Iโ€™m learning about intersectionality on my MA atm I listened to a podcast yโ€™day, this quote resonated. I felt the impact! I took an inhale/exhale - โ€œlearning the capacity to feel safety where it is instead of stay on alert historicallyโ€. OMGโ€ฆeveryday experience. Thank you.

Just because something doesnโ€™t affect you personally, doesnโ€™t mean you shouldnโ€™t care about it. We, as humans should desire to see others free from suffering

Just because something doesnโ€™t affect you personally, doesnโ€™t mean you shouldnโ€™t care about it. We, as humans should desire to see others free from suffering

I absolutely agree with this! Itโ€™s so sad that millions donโ€™t.
