Praise the Lord, Drop the Rock
I went on the trains today and said: "Happy Mother's Day. Lets remember all the mothers who are locked in prison. We lock up 12 times as many women today as in 1980." Praise the Lord. God is good. I am on my way to buying a house with a really good group of people in West Philly. On Thursday, I spoke at a college for the first time in a year -Wesleyan. It felt good. 250 students came out on last minute publicity and they gave me a lot of love and we stayed up all night talking movement-building strategy and about race and numbness on campus. The Stupid School is trying to get rid of Tricia Rose, the author of Black Noise, supposedly because she doesn't fit into their departmental box. If you're a student there, raise hell about that, email the dean and cc sascha weiss saweiss@mail.wesleyan.edu who's organizing this at the last minute. Also, it came out that the university president is trying to hire a conservative finance person on his senior staff. If students make a fuss, they'll be likely to choose the other candidate who seems better. Also, in NY State, we're close to passing major legislation to reform the insane Rockefeller drug laws. The state legislature is sitting on the fence. Let's give em a big push June 15, the last day of school with a major protest in front of the Adam Clayton Powell Building on 125th St. at 3pm with a celebration afterwards at Marcus Garvey Park. check out www.droptherock.org. (Also, that might be a good message for graf writers to write on sidewalks around NY state if they can mature to the point of wanting to write more than their own names over and over again).
