the dismantling of (cross-disciplinary) studies of liberation reminds me of Sylvia Wynter’s invitation to think about academic work that has and can radically shift our present system of knowledge. pedagogy can foster rebellion. research has the capacity to undo harm and learn about resistance.

Let’s play a game: which Black woman archetype are you being shoved into ~ at work? at school? in romantic relationships? in your family ? You get 10 points per archetype you’ve been gerrymandered into to erase your humanity! Ok, let’s go!

Lorraine O'Grady lifted me up with her intellect, her wit, her nerve. This assignment came at a point in my life when I needed it and didn't even know. She was a blessing.

I am saddened to know Lorraine has passed, and I am endlessly grateful to her. She lit flames that will never go out. 🖤
