Yesterday was the anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre. There are two survivors left. Ages 109. I think a lot about the failure of this nation to address this atrocity and many others. Not from the 17th, 18th or 19th century, but the 20th. And the determination of those survivors to live so long.

It may be difficult for some to reconcile how Dalì could be both a racist who was expelled from the Surrealists group for his obsessions with fascism, Hitler, and Franco —and an artist who fetished African American model and actress Donyale Luna.

Exactly.

This happens often on reservations—the euphemism is “starlight tours.” Pigs in the US also kill more Indigenous people per capita than any other race, and extractive industry settler workers are known to abduct, traffic and murder Indigenous women & girls.
