Repost from 2023 but still evergreen quotes from and about the Black Panthers. I am sick to the back teeth of liberals and democrats being reconstituted as Leftists. There is no significant organised Left. If there had been one, that was committed to addressing working people’s material conditions and improving the quality of their lives, our current political and social landscape would look dramatically different

For the latest instalment of our Inspired By series, we spent the day with the author, academic and broadcaster Emma Dabiri. Across her three books – ’Don’t Touch My Hair’, ‘What White People Can Do Next’ and ‘Disobedient Bodies’ – Emma has dismantled conventional narratives around race, capitalism and beauty, and invited us to imagine an alternative, more equitable world, where our lives aren’t dictated by society’s rules and expectations.

The racial categories #black and #white the architecture of race as we understand it today are 17th century inventions necessary to shore up the logic of racial capitalism. The #preference (lol) for lighter complexioned people with longer and looser hair textures in black communities is rooted in the stigma that came to be associated with black features in this period and is an expression of #whitesupremacy, can we just be fr fr on that ? Because if we can’t even speak honestly on it we have little hope of ever healing from it. (I feel like of every where I’ve lived Britain is the biggest mess on this topic). When Toni Morrison says the function of racism is distraction I often think of the years I’ve pored into learning, teaching and writing about this stuff, when my passions are not actually #racism (funnily enough) but philosophy consciousness ✌🏽 .

Next up : What impact does a cyclical understanding of time, organised according to the coexistence of the unborn, the living and the ancestral have on how a society views #aging and #beauty and how does this differ from a culture that sees time as sequential, chronological and linear? #yoruba #metaphysics #colonialtime #ageing #antiaging #beauty #disobedientbodies This week is a Masterclass from @emmadabiri 🤩❤️✍🏽 A personal inspiration, Emma is an esteemed Author, Presenter (@bbcfour and @channel4) and Columnist (@guardian and @irishtimes).

THE MULTIVERSE : Yoruba cyclical time, sequential colonial time, poetry and quantum physics Last night I gave a lecture at Oxford University to a group of African Masters Students on creative and critical thinking. I wanted to share how studying African epistemologies and ontologies have inspired my own thinking and writing. This lecture has a long been in gestation and I’ll keep refining and updating it. Shoutout to @blindboyboatclub @esdevlin Cyrille Vigneron Chairman of Cartier Culture & Philanthropy whom conversations with over the last few years have inspired my thinking on #quantumphysics *FULL DISCLAIMER I AM NOT A PHYSICIST LOL don’t come for me Back in 2018 / 2019 maybe I appeared on blindboys podcast and we had the best conversation about the differences between sequential linear time and non-linear cyclical time (I remember an audience member at the end complaining to me that she wanted to hear me talk about #allyship rather than time, how interestingly prescient 🫠) Sharing some clips from the lecture here. Let me know your thoughts #multiverse #yoruba #yorubametaphysics #mwi #DavidDeutsch #ErwinSchrödinger #quantumphysics #nonlineartime #intothespiderverse
A chaotic attempt at a first #grwm as I battle with not missing the train, having smashed one of the lenses in my camera so there’s no proper focus unless close up thus not actually being able to share the whole look, and the desire to still wanna share this cute lil fit but it’s also motivated by the fact that I’m not a super put together or polished person, you can be successful without everything being fucking stage managed “perfect” ya zimme no matter how much all this curated lifestyle tries to convince you otherwise Most of the garms are from @miista got a cute lil ting dropping with ‘em soon ! PS I DIDNT MISS THE TRAIN 💅🏽 but I came fkn close 🥳 #adhd #ALittleLookeen
