Mostly sneezes, reposts, thoughts, rantings, unedited nonsense, and favourite or interesting links and news and passages and quotes and engaging music and film, etc.. Don't expect to like it.

offshoot – What Will Be the Cure?: A Conversation with Sylvia Wynter
Last month, I had a chance to interview Sylvia Wynter about the pandemic, Black studies, and radicalism in our current moment. What began as a series of catch-ups over the course of the pandemic, turned into this short interview—a glimpse into the conversations we’ve had over the last several months. This interview revisits some major themes in her work(s), with the added context of our current/ongoing context of the pandemic/rebellion/authoritarian politics. Most importantly, this conversation spotlights her commitment to realizing the Third Event, a break defined by language and storytelling, as the way out of our current and persistent predicaments.
