“The airlock opened before me, edgeless vacuity beyond. There were no winds here, no crashing waves. Only the cold constancy of stars, to which I was just a crude bit of wet carbon, a flake of skin you brush aside. My pain and pettiness and mistakes and inadequacies did not matter. I did not matter. Nothing we did out here mattered. Nothing we could or would ever do would matter, in the face of this.”
Becky Chambers, To Be Taught, If Fortunate

“Solidarität ist nicht von sich aus eine Tugend, sie kann sich auch als völkische, rassistische oder nationalistische Verbundenheit äußern. Entscheidend ist also nicht die Frage, ob eine Gesellschaft solidarisch sein kann, sondern wen sie in ihre Solidarität mit einschließt. Und da hatten bereits in den Monaten vor dem Virus die Aufdeckung rechter Strukturen in Bundeswehr, Verfassungsschutz, Polizei und Feuerwehr und die unterlassene Hilfeleistung für die Geflüchteten an der türkisch-griechischen Grenze deutliche Hinweise geliefert. Aber erst der abrupte Schulterschluss gegen Corona und die Verkündigung bedingungsloser Solidarität machten klar, dass es in den vorausgegangenen Fällen nicht an staatlicher Durchsetzungsfähigkeit gemangelt hatte, sondern an - Solidarität.”
Max Czollek, Gegenwartsbewältigung

Michael S. Kimmel
“To be white, or straight, or male, or middle class is to be simultaneously ubiquitious and invisible. You’re everywhere you look, you’re the standard against which everyone else is measured. You’re like water, like air. People will tell you they went to see a “woman doctor” or they will say they went to see “the doctor.” People will tell you they have a “gay colleague” or they’ll tell you about a colleague. A white person will be happy to tell you about a “Black friend,” but when that same person simply mentions a “friend,” everyone will assume the person is white. Any college course that doesn’t have the word “woman” or “gay” or “minority” in its title is a course about men, heterosexuals, and white people. But we call those courses “literature,” “history” or “political science.”

This invisibility is political.”
Michael S. Kimmel, Privilege: A Reader

Virginia Woolf
“Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.”
Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own

Morgan Harper Nichols
“May you always be the one
who notices the little things
that make the light pour
through, and may they always
remind you: There is more to
life and there is more to you.”
Morgan Harper Nichols
