Chaos Computer Club - archive feed (high quality)The Wretched of the Earth (kolo)In general, a distinction is made between literature (novels, poetry, theatre) and essays. When looking at things and at life in this way, the aesthetic quality of certain theoretical texts is sometimes overlooked. The texts by Fanon or Césaire not only throw light on the state of (black) people, but also deliver a rich, exhilarating, evocative, prophetic and indisputably literary language, displaying impressive élan in doing so. This language alone, which is elevated and yet perfectly suited to questioning slavery and colonisation as well as their consequences, makes this evening event well worth a visit. The performance, which is ba...2018-01-2650 min

Wilson Beyond White Racism, Civil Rights…Part 1Contrary to the feelings this image may invoke, seeking integration is not power. Real “Men” and “Women” don’t wear signs saying they are men or women they act as such. Civil Rights actually fortified inferiority complexes among African people because it sought assimilation as its goal, and that is why it is venerated in the mainstream media. Dr. Amos N. Wilson knew this all to well.
