“[Kate] Durbin writes, "Direct action aims to make tangible changes in the world. Art creates space for contemplation--a space that can allow for a broader, more sensitive perception of all things. Activism requires both a clear-eyed understanding of how systems of power work and a forceful vision of the future. By offering images of vulnerability, collectivity, and resilience, art can be an indispensable partner in this project.”

“When you spend money on something, the transaction is about more than you exchanging your money for some goods or service. That money is also a de facto endorsement of the business you're giving it to. By giving money to a business, like it or not, you're telling that business that you approve of the way they do things. One way to resist Amazon, other than (of course) not buying things from them, is to instead give money to businesses whose practices are better than Amazon. A bit of research can help you find businesses with unionized workers, businesses with high wages, employee-owned businesses, and businesses who work to reduce their impact on the environment. This is a form of advocacy you can enact every day.”

“Decolonized History Lesson (Sonnet 1546) Early Arabs and Indians invented astronomy and algebra, Early white people invented genocide and massacre. Indigenous Latinos invented chocolate, Early Chinese invented printing. Early Caucasians invented cockiness, calling invasion as civilization-bringing. Modern Arabs build cities in the desert, Modern whites still burn down cities. Modern Indians democratize space exploration, Modern whites still manufacture disparities. Modern whites coddle hate and prejudice, and use free speech as justification. If any humane white ever questions hate, they're branded, woke traitor to the nation. Till this day, white people manufacture 99% of the world's human rights violations. If you right the wrong, it's cussed as wokeness, To support white terrorism is patriotism.”
