Three Things
George
- Watching: Sarah Cooper, a comedian and definitely not a mime, lip synching Trump’s speeches
- Listening: To Alice Coltrane’s mostly harp album Journey in Satchidananda. “The world needs more Coltrane” - George
- Using: Twitter specifically, but social media generally, because of things like Seth Rogan’s responses to all lives matter, images like this one declaring “We said -> Black lives matter, not -> Only black lives matter…” and K-Pop stanning all lives matter
Carly
- Listening: Inspired by Angry Grrrl Music of the Indie Rock’s tweet, and because she missed the last Bandcamp sale, she bought Arlo Park’s Super Sad Generation and Vagabond’s Vagabond, along with tracks by Sofia D’Angelo, Tasha and Dua Saleh
- Listening pt 2: Carly continued totally cheating and referenced not one, but three Revisionist History episodes. Two focused on memory as an imperfect tool: A Polite Word for Liar and Free Brian Williams and then The Hug Heard Round the World about Sammy Davis Jr. and Nixon’s hug and what it meant for Sammy Davis Jr’s career
- Reading: Patti Smith’s poetic novel Just Kids
Dan
- Watching and Listening: Marques Brownlee’s Reflecting on the Color of My Skin, Casey Neistat’s What Black Lives Matter Protests are really about, and Ali Abdall’s Racism, Social Justice, and Figuring Stuff Out
- Watching: Willie Morris document the building of EV Park, where you can rally Teslas
- Designing: Custom t-shirts with Teespring (we are open to sponsorship!)
