A Sad Day

Shirley Horn died this past Thursday. She was 71.

Today I witnessed on television a most wonderful exchange between Cornel West, Guyatri Spivak and Luke Harris, with Farah Griffin acting as the host. It was beautiful and inspiring. Cornel is most wonderful. He should be god.

I read today in the Journal and Courier that the FBI is going to start working closely with College campus presidents. This should be paid close attention.

Oh the priorities of the Bush administration. Amidst all that is going on they have time to lend a hand to the gun lobby.

Recording My Dreams

A few nights ago I had an eerie and sort of disturbing dream. I dreamt that my mother, Charles, and I all lived together and my mother made Charles leave. After that happened, I went out looking for him and stayed on the street with some girl that I was friends with. I was really upset and was looking for Charles.

Yesterday I bought 4 films, all of which I have seen before- Julia, Jo Jo Dancer Your Life Is Calling, Lost in Yonkers, and Madame Souzatska.

I definitely have to let go of my middle class sensibilities and comforts--1. I must be at home, I must act according to certain rules, I must, I must..... no more....the end of Middle Class sensibilities....

Hungry Blues has a great post on the prison policy initiative which can be found here.

Today is a beautiful day and I feel soo good. Alas, revolution and all progressive movement is supposed to be in order to help the people. If its not helping people, then it doesnt need to be done. We also want to eradicate all captialst thinking.
