Tombe la pluie - Theespookje<p>Has populism gone that far to make us forget our will to build, create, tell, move, if it can't be marketed?

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 25, 1957: U.S. Customs seized copies of Allen Ginsberg's poem "Howl" on obscenity grounds. Poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and City Lights manager, Shigeyoshi Murao, were arrested on obscenity charges for publishing and distributing the poem. Howl was inspired, in part, by a terrifying peyote vision Ginsberg had in which the façade of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, in San Francisco, appeared as the monstrous face of a child-eating demon. The obscenity charges stemmed from homophobic responses to his explicit references to homosexuality. Ginsberg’s first experience with LSD, as well as Kerouac’s and Burroughs’s, was with acid provided by the anthropologist Gregory Bateson, one-time husband of and long-time collaborator with Margaret Mead. You can read more about Bateson and Mead’s early experimentation with, and promotion of, psychedelics (and their collaboration with the CIA) in the recent book, “Tripping on Utopia.”</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poetry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poetry</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/howl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>howl</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lgbtq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lgbtq</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/allenginsburg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>allenginsburg</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/homophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homophobia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lawrenceferlinghetti" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lawrenceferlinghetti</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/citylights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>citylights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/obscenity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>obscenity</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>censorship</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bannedbooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bannedbooks</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/kerouac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kerouac</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/williamburoughs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>williamburoughs</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lsd</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/peyote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>peyote</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/margaretmead" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>margaretmead</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gregorybateson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gregorybateson</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/psycheldelics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>psycheldelics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poet</span></a> @bookstadon</p>

MDMRN<p>Maus uses anthropomorphized mice to represent Jewish characters, pigs for Poles, cats for the Germans, and so on. It is very effective at getting the point across, but it has its flaws and potential issues as well. </p><p>I'm glad I read it. </p><p>My Dad's family are Eastern European Jews. They fled from Poland and what is now either Ukraine or Belarus (family is not sure) when pogroms were sweeping across Eastern Europe. They fled a generation before the Holocaust, fleeing a different attempt to exterminate ethnically Jewish people. </p><p>I don't know, this hit me weird emotionally.

Scott Pfitzinger<p>This bill is being rushed through the process so the public does not have much opportunity to comment.</p><p>Ultra-conservatives want to block access to any library by people under 18 years old if the library contains anything that the far right considers "obscene." Including materials about same-sex relationships or transgender people. This law would block all minors from access if the library owned a book like this.</p><p>For the record:<br>"There are no obscene materials in public or public school libraries in the United States. This is a moral panic brought forth by the right over books they don’t like and that represent voices, stories, and perspectives outside of the rigid white, straight, able-bodied, cis gender, Christian boundaries."</p><p><a href="https://bookriot.com/iowa-rushes-advances-librarian-criminalization-bill/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bookriot.com/iowa-rushes-advan</span><span class="invisible">ces-librarian-criminalization-bill/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/libraries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>libraries</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/bannedbooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bannedbooks</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/criminalization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criminalization</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/librarians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>librarians</span></a></p>
