People go on about the loss of third spaces IRL but we also simultaneously lost most third spaces that existed on the internet

My friend just completed her first semester in the Museum Studies program at GWU. She’s the only Black student in her program + Black curators/archivists only make up 5.3% of the U.S. population.

She needs $$ to stay in school! Please RT and donate!

To mark the cassette tape’s 60th birthday, I wrote about its cultural and political impact in the Middle East. It empowered musicians deemed “less cultured”, and propelled the mass transmission of music, cassette letters and sermons across the diaspora.

#BooksForMaui is now live! It is a bookish auction to raise funds for the Maui wildfire relief efforts. With the full impact, devastation, and loss of life of the wildfire yet to be understood, we encourage everyone to bid and/or signal boost: https://t.co/Z8HYt34Co3

Seeing all the videos of #OshaeSibley dancing & seeing protesters vouging in support, made me think of all the little Black, Queer boys out there & what it means to find joy in the simplest things like dancing. We won’t let bigots dim their light. Queer lives matter. RIP Oshae
