Yes! Niya McAdoo! “…death to America…”

Article
“These systems thrive on the emotional, mental and physical trauma and labor of Black and Brown individuals who are taken advantage of everyday,”

McAdoo, who is a senior at Kansas University, isn't backing down.
"Please know that it is death to an America that was built on Indigenous genocide and the backs of Black slaves," McAdoo said in a follow-up tweet on Sept. 3. "If you’re worried about people in the service of the military, be mad at your government because my words shouldn’t make you this mad."
"It’s very telling," McAdoo said in a tweet the same day, "that more people are concerned with a re-tweet opinion and not the actual racial and sexual violence that has happened in student senate and on KU campus. Where is the outrage for Black and Brown folks? Where is the outrage for sexual assault survivors?"

Re: puzzling evidence (from Marc James L

i am infused with “indexical” too

grateful Bill

​Nick: ​who wrote what here?

Bill:​ good question​ - this will help!?:


Marc James Léger critiques the review by Karin Bareman

Marc: this person does not understand photography
photography is indexical, it isn't about filters…

(Karin:) But somehow Dane never made it onto the list of canonical twentieth-century American photographers. And, as Skjæveland intimates, he was curious to find out why, after such a promising start, Dane was no longer in the spotlight.

Marc: that is, until MJL, a graduate student at the UR taking a cross-listed "American photography in the 60s" course with Carl Chiarenza ( always study with the real thing when you have the chance ) and discovered Dane's postcard work in a book on photography and postcards, checked him out in the dictionary of artists, wrote to him, checked out his images in the George Eastman House collection, which is kept in the library collection, as it happens.
then, MJL was made to go "public," as it were, a well-kept secret as everybody's favorite burning man, etc, etc, and on and on, which caught the attention of Dan Svankmejer, who, being a fan of Danish horror and death metal, thought that's not pretty. Bill got right with Dan and so on but did not realize, Dan is THE REAL SZARKOWSKI!

this is not the school of art theory i would have had any relation to.
even Abigail Solomon-Godeau had principles

Martha Rosler is a good reference but there too I think she would have thought that Bill Dane is just as "guarded" in his strategies as Gary Win-a-grand ( with the McArthur I shall return, 'America is back' Foundation )

​(Karin:)​ https://c4journal.com/the-ghost-of-john-szarkowski-bill-dane-pictures/

(Karin:) Dane printed his images as gelatin silver postcards and posted 69,000 of them, over a period of nearly forty years, to influential figures in the art world, including John Szarkowski, the renowned photography curator at the MoMA.

Marc: 69,000 + 1 sent to Cayley !

Die Antword I think would have been too funky

anyway, it's none of my business

it's a free country
