Check him out. Wouldn’t you like to have him come to speak at your school? I know I would. I would need to get several departments on board with me to organize this, though. Perhaps for next year.
Meanwhile, following the advice of Unsane and inspired by Morphological Confetti and Wandering Caravan, I have been in a state of open and complete rebellion all weekend. I have been preparing class in a way XP would recommend: with pleasure, engagement, and meaning. I am very much refreshed.
I am watching this video on James Baldwin by bygINC. He has made this video as well, also on Baldwin who is a truly great writer.
Note: Reeducation called pleasure, engagement, and meaning, “control.” I had too much control. I tried to understand this for some time. I think that what Reeducation meant was, I was not enough of a vassal to its suffering.
Axé.
Dear Professor Zero,
Thank you for this kindness.
Blessings,
Geoffrey
I’m serious about trying to get you an invitation to speak here, as in next fall or spring. We are quite Caribbean in some ways, and I’ve got a student now who is ‘addicted’ to the Anancy stories!
Z, that’s the one addiction that I can say “yes” to.
Peace,
Geoffrey
Hello my friend. It’s great that we can inspire each other. Enjoy the rest of your week and peace to you.
