30 years ago today, Francesca Woodman jumped to her death from the window of a Lower East Side Manhattan loft. A photographer, she was prodigious and original; she had been a star pupil at the Rhode Island School of Design and a contemporary of the Surrealists in Rome. She left behind 800 negatives and 120 published images, which later would multiply into nearly 500 and comprise one of the most stunning—and studied—oeuvres in American photography. She was 22 years old when she died.

And the most poetic thing I know is that if we build concrete blocks over an ecosystem, that same ecosystem will eventually grow back if we stop repressing it. A jungle will be a jungle, a desert a desert, the Earth always wins.

And it’s silly that I’m stressed out to infinity and beyond
But I’m that inspired by what I’m learning
And the reality of the world is too awful, exploitative, and sensicle
So we therapeutically dance after class
Forgetting the prisons, Flint, and globalization
Then we start over again
I’m changing my life, I’m changing my major.
School got hard: conditions of production, class struggle, social reproduction, surplus crisis, housing bubble, hegemony, class consciousness, historical materialism, Black marxism, economic imperialism, modernity, neoliberalism, neoconservatism, neorealism, flexible accumulation, postmodernism, fordism, and it goes on forever.
Challenged myself to take a class upper division even though I’m a freshperson.
Got an A+, which is becoming a regular occurance in my life.
Yipeee.

Oppression that was free and of quality”
