#17May Remembering Sylvia Rivera and the sh*t she had to go through day after day bc of transphobia, including from what we call our community. Listen to her:

B&W picture of trans activist Sylvia Rivera in the 1970s. She stands in front of a banner that reads Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR), a collective she co-founded with trans activist Marsha P. Johnson, and that collective provided housing + support to homeless LGBT youth and sex workers.

William Pope L., then?
#conclave #margins #minorities #homelessness
Pope.L, who was also known as William Pope.L, made his first crawling piece in 1978. Wearing a business suit and pushing a potted plant, he crawled the length of 42nd Street in New York on his hands and knees, taking him across Times Square, then heavily populated with homeless people, sex workers, drug addicts and others at society’s margins.

Get we get Cardinal Benitez as the new Pope?
Please?
#Conclave
Actor Carlos Diehz playing Cardinal Benitez in Edward Berger's Conclave. He is standing in a meeting room with other cardinals, all dressed in white gown and red chasuble. The story: "Cardinal Lawrence is charged with leading one of the world's most secret and long-standing events, the selection of a new pope, where he finds himself at the center of a conspiracy that could shake the very foundations."

the student-led course Unmasking Space will discuss the notion of 'protest city' w Magdalena Picazzo & Richard Gerald Rondón, co-founders of student platform LATINNA.
Join them if you can and follow them @unmaskingspace (IG)
UNMASKING SPACE X RICHARD GERALD-RONDÓN & MAGDALENA PICAZZO — A PROTEST CITY: AUGMENTED SPACES FOR INSURGENT CITIZENSHIP with architect Magdalena Picazzo and spatial researcher Richard Gerald-Rondón, co-founders of LATINAA, the student-led platform at the AA, London. This week’s session explores the slippage of the modern city into liquid, rebel imaginaries, whose political ground evolved into a spatial practice of occupation, communication and reclaiming. Drawing on the concept of the ‚augmented city‘, where material and mediated geographies converge, we will explore how protesters navigate, transform and narrate the extreme environment of protest through hybrid mechanisms of diffusion and organisation. @richardgerald.r @magdalenapicazzo — Unmasking Space sessions are open and public. Everyone is welcome to join our weekly sessions! We meet on Thursday, 13.03 at 15:45 at HCI F2. — Unmasking Space is a student-led course which aims to reflect critically on the current knowledge production in architecture education and bring attention to learning forms, voices, and methods that are currently under-acknowledged in the institution. If you have questions, please kindly send an email to: unmaskingspace@arch.ethz.ch

#OTD Ursula K. Le Guin passed 7 y. ago.
Her "Left Hand" is stunning:
"A lone human ambassador is sent to . . . Winter, . . . where the inhabitants’ gender is fluid. His goal is to facilitate Winter’s inclusion in a growing intergalactic civilization."
