Quimby's bookshop in #chicago is an absolute gem. This was the first place we started selling our books way back in the day —- we just did a fresh restock including Margaret's newest book. Go support!!

The apartment reading combo potluck with a donations can that gets adequately stuffed and with someplace to sleep for the traveling performers is a dying art form — let's do better!!

Pitymilk and @bathmatics.bsky.social dropped #books at a little #local #bookshop and #recordstore in #ypsilanti #michigan called WYRD BYRD. It’s a great shop and Sean is truly a weird bird.

May we all increasingly forego the vanities of silence.
calebw.bsky.social Caleb Ward @calebw.bsky.social · Sep 26
Assata Shakur exchanged letters with Audre Lorde from prison, and Lorde wrote for her the poem "For Assata":

I dream of your freedom
as my victory
and the victory of all dark women
who forego the vanities of silence

👇Here's the whole poem
For Assata New Brunswick Prison, 1977 In this new picture your smile has been to war you are almost obscured by other faces on the pages those shadows are sisters who have not yet spoken your face is in shadow obscured by the half-dark by the thick bars running across your eyes like sentinels all the baby fat has been burned away like a luxury your body let go reluctantly the corners of your mouth turn down I cannot look into your eyes who are all those others behind you the shadows are growing lighter and more confusing. I dream of your freedom as my victory and the victory of all dark women who forego the vanities of silence who war and weep sometimes against our selves in each other rather than our enemies falsehoods Assata my sister warrior Joan of Arc and Yaa Asantewa embrace at the back of your cell. By Audre Lorde Assata gesturing and smiling
