Thank you @corpus.studios @showmethebody @nts_radio for allowing me to share this deeply personal mix with you all. Within its folds, I explore themes of sovereignty and spirituality through songs and poems that have been very dear to me as of late. If you missed it/would like to run it back you can find the link in my bio 🔗🤍

This past year, as I’ve dealt with many griefs, I’ve found comfort in contemplating “residence time” as it applies to my ancestors and the Atlantic (thank you @hhhhiram). I love the ocean and have always felt it speaks to me, as I sometimes hear low voices counting in the crashing waves. I’ve recently been into cacophonous percussion, blending lush synth textures with layered drums, while exploring old and nu-jazz. I am, again, so grateful for the opportunity to explore these sonic and personal themes.

That said I am rarely moved to create these days, as the city that raised me is becoming increasingly uninhabitable due to cost and impending climate disaster. Brooklyn’s fate mirrors many cities globally. The tangled vines of gentrification, incarceration, exploitation, and systemic starvation stretch from here to Gaza, Nairobi, Rubaya, and Khartoum. These are the consequences of a world built by enslaved peoples atop their mass graves, and whose modern economy necessitates the exploitation of their descendants.

Native people have been telling yall for years: voting is not harm reduction. We must find ways to resist and reclaim our spaces, transforming our collective grief and anger into tangible action and solidarity. Organize, or die. Mobilize, or die.

Participation in the same political machine that holds 1.3M prisoner, 650K without homes, 2.2M without drinkable water, and 26M without healthcare, is complacency. If the extent of your political engagement is checking boxes on a ballot, you have blood on your hands.

Why fear conservatives and what further rights they may strip away if/when they seize control? What rights have you now?

There is real danger in people who believe they’ve done something when in reality they’ve done nothing at all. by @theythemhehim
