At times it is really hard to forget the violences borne by the body as we sit writing our papers, and thessays... how to move without being lost? And ik feminists keep telling us to write from the body but truly there is no language, no form that can hold it.

It is time to accept my place in the empire, in the corners of the world where illegibility and suspicion take away life, breath, and possibility.

It is okay to be hopeless about life in the empire, and hopeful of a different world.

France should have kept its language at home then.
The Ivory Coast is changing the way French is spoken and France is mad about it.

I need to look up scholarship on the trauma of the archives. Like being in thr archive, and having the simple needs of drinking water, peeing, walking, taking a phone call, leads to strict policing and I wonder how marginalized bodies bear that policing

"This preoccupation with national space and with borders reveals an obsession to approximate a historical original that never existed, except as the telos of the narrative of modernity: a pure, unambiguous community called the homeland"

This callousness is unique to this ecology.

How do people click away on something that annihilates the very relations between a people and their land?

How do we claim universality for some while singularity and divisiveness for the rest of the world?
