i think jesse jackson was one of the most important american political figures of the post-war era and i think that his 1984 and 1988 campaigns for the democratic nomination still have a great deal to teach about forging a path to a more egalitarian world. RIP.

Jesse Jackson was an early and ardent supporter of gay rights. In fact, on July 17, 1984 at the DNC in San Fransisco, the first speech EVER at a national political convention calling for gay rights was delivered by none other than Rev. Jackson himself.

HOME INVASION BY INVITATION
When horror lets danger in politely, these films expose how being “nice” delays survival; turning hospitality, discomfort, and social obligation into the real point of no return.

HOLDING THE THRESHOLD: AFTERLIFE AND REFUSAL TO LET THE DEAD REMAIN DEAD IN ‘TALK TO ME’
Talk to Me (2022) frames grief not as passage but as paralysis; a suspended state where the refusal to accept absence traps the mourner in a self-perpetuating loop of contact and collapse.
