"Liberation music writes over top the words and phrases / sentences you’ve previously written." —Inside Song

"When the cameras are gone, our babies are dead. So I’m asking you to wake up. Can any of you tell me the other 6 women who died in jail in July 2015 along with Sandra? That is a problem."

George Albon on Fran Herndon 🙏🏽🌞

[Open Space @Open_Space]

"I lived in Fran’s house for twenty-five years. The memories are continually there in the present — sometimes conjoined, sometimes in single file, and surely imperfectly replayed a lot of the time."
