Sunni Patterson was on Democracy Now! Friday morning and so I am hoping that means everybody reading Amor Mundi has already heard this miraculous genius and her righteous ferocious poetry. If you didn't, listen now. Amazing!

Just as you said - she is amazing! This is the first exposure I have had with her... one of those rare examples that blend so fluidly a "miraculous genius" and a "righteous ferocity", affecting us so much more more powerfully than either one or the other alone could do.
I have been keeping up with your blog for a few weeks now (I am a new transfer student at Berkeley) and I wanted to thank you for exposing through your blog such important examples of art, and such vocative alerts in the way of political news. The passion with which your devote yourself to these important causes is tempered by such an intelligent realism that I cannot help but think you will be a great voice for americans in the future.
I have personally never encountered before someone who was not either a "technophobiac" or a "technophiliac" (I admit myself of having been heavily the former) and see now how important it is to resolve that dichotomy. I think your ideas will catch on powerfully once we begin to face at the same moment the fact that we are an irreversibly technological culture and the fact that our world will not last unless we gain control of our centers of production.
Once again, thank you very much for this blog! It is always a pleasure to read. I wish you the best in teaching your courses this semester.
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for reading! And please comment as well if you read anything you take issue with here -- I enjoy grappling with a diversity of ideas as I try to come up with my own best takes on things...
