Thanks to everyone in San Francisco who came out to the last Swiz book event. It was an honor to share the night with Radio Silence (a book I strongly suggest you pick up!! Second edition now available from @revelationrecords ). It was a joy to see so many old friends and friendly faces to share in a conversation on this culture we love, support, and continue to create in real time. thank you @christopherrobinduncan and @etalgallerysf for making it happen. For those that couldn’t make it out to SF, DC, LA, or NYC, we still have a limited amount of shirts, books, and a few Swiz box sets available to buy…drop us a DM!

One moment has stuck with me since. A woman briefly derailed the panel and its 80’s/90’s-HC-nostalgia-huffing by insisting we talk about a far more pressing issue: the murder of yet another person by ICE agents that very morning. She was drunk, obnoxious, and not offering any solutions… but she was not wrong. just broken-hearted. We do need to talk about it…to constantly make it be known where we stand on what’s going on. So in that spirit of clarity, I would like to say I am not buying whatever justification, excuse, or lie is given or fabricated for harassing and killing American humans or non-American humans in the street, in their cars, in their homes, or in a detention center.

If you feel you can’t escape this surround-sound assault – the sinking sense that horrible things are happening and you feel angry, or powerless, or overwhelmed – just know it is by design. It is the continuation and escalation of tactics designed to create fear, division, and chaos as cover for a power grab whose success relies on you giving up. Take your breaks when you can to catch your breath, get centered, get calm…then get back at it. Keep witnessing, filming, speaking out, challenging, protesting, fighting, thinking, creating, and building something better that’s rooted in love, joy, inclusion, and strength.

But if you’re someone who feels totally cool with this situation then take a moment to try and understand why someone might be concerned or outraged…a quick gut-check with your heart and your mind. I hope you find something of value in either. by @daveeight

Thank you to everyone who came out to the recent Swiz book events in LA, NYC, and DC — all three places i’ve called home in my life, and that’s how it felt. And a huge thank you to the photographers, contributors, and general enablers who helped make the book, box set, and events happen. @akashicbooks @lost_origins_gallery @samjamesvelde @the.hunt.vintage @roughtradenyc @storiesbooksandcafe @dischordrecords @johnnytemple127 @iamsharongardner @crucialjohn @anthony_pappa
@lost_origins_gallery @jasonhamacher
I love being a part of this culture/community…creating, collaborating, supporting, watching, listening… all of it. And I love it all the more getting to share the experience with people who have had immeasurable impact on my life.

The Swiz exhibit at Lost Origins Gallery / DC will be up for another month through January 11, so you can still swing by if you missed the opening party. The Swiz Book and exhibit T-shirts are available at the exhibit and through https://lostorigins.gallery

After that we’ll pack it up for one last exhibit Jan 24 in San Francisco: a collaborative event with Radio Silence (details to follow).
love, jason, nathan, alex, dave, shawn, ramsey, and amanda @rkmnyc @daveeight @nato911 @s_mfn_b @amandamackaye @farrell9600 by @daveeight
