“Self-aware” by Sergio Vallés on INPRNT

love-ardour-anarchism

“If you deny any affinity with another person or kind of person, if you declare it to be wholly different from yourself—as men have done to women, and class has done to class, and nation has done to nation—you may hate it, or deify it, but in either case you have denied its spiritual equality, and its human reality. You have made it into a thing, to which the only possible relationship is a power relationship. And thus you have fatally impoverished your own reality.” Ursula K. Le Guin "American SF and The Other" in Science-Fiction Studies 7, 1975.

On this day, 16 July 1862, Black feminist, anti-racist and anti-lynching activist Ida B. Wells was born in Holly Springs, Mississippi. After the lynching murders of three of her friends for the "crime" of setting up a grocery store which competed with a white-owned store she undertook a detailed investigation of lynchings and their causes. Wells' work countered the popular myth that most lynchings were to punish alleged rapists, and showed that instead most were for such "crimes" as failing to pay debts, competing with whites economically or drinking alcohol. She recommended that Black people arm themselves for "protection which the law refuses to give"; she herself bought a pistol after being threatened by white racists. Wells participated in the founding of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), but later distanced herself from the group after becoming dissatisfied with its leadership made up of the small group of either white or Black members of the elite. Instead she founded the Negro Fellowship League, and later the Alpha Suffrage Club in Chicago, which may have been the first Black women's suffrage organisation.
