Community: Journal of Power Politics and Democracy in Hell’s Kitchen

COMPREHENSIVE, ARTICULATE, HONEST AND ENGAGING – DAVID SELZER

Community is a memoir of community work and city politics in Manhattan during the turbulent 1980s and 1990s – as a neighborhood fights the effects of “development fever” and the devastating flood of illegal drugs. It is a sometimes brutal but also inspiring account of people organizing peacefully to save and improve their community.

A Pagan Place by Edna O'Brien
"‘A Pagan Place’ by Edna O’Brien (1970). Tells the ambiguous and often impenetrable stream of consciousness story of a girl growing up in Ireland in the 1930’s/40’s - it’s esoteric, unclear, rambling and at times (quite often) just plain confusing. Th" Read more of this review »

“The moment of change is the only poem.”
Adrienne Rich

Adrienne Rich
“Responsibility to yourself means refusing to let others do your thinking, talking, and naming for you; it means learning to respect and use your own brains and instincts; hence, grappling with hard work.”
Adrienne Rich

“If I had but two loaves of bread, I would sell one and buy hyacinths, for they would feed my soul.”
Mohammad

“Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women, and the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who's confronted with it. We need equality. Kinda now.”
Joss Whedon

Rebecca West
“I myself have never been able to find out precisely what feminism is: I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”
Rebecca West
