MANIFEST

wait til you fuckers hear about The Expanse. it's got Jovian moon battles galore and ship crew polycules and maybe even some crazy alien goo please read it please I need a community to talk about it with and you're all so close it's so good. book 2 cold opens on the icy surface of Ganymede with a shooting war about to begin from the POV of a Samoan power armour marine girl from Mars. you get to watch space Mormons get their investments reacquisitioned for a harebrained scheme to save millions of lives. the protagonist has like ten biological parents for tax reasons.

twitter is being overrun by ice war posting. Best this sites been in ages

so i study decolonization, as in i studied it as part of my degree, and i thought I'd make a list of some readings/films that might offer additional insight about decolonization (it also helps if you're tired of the christian moralistic thinking)

occupation 101 (can be found on youtube i believe, it's about the history between isreal and palestine, it focuses on palestinians and it is quite comprehensive. there's live footage, there's interviews with palestinian children, etc. it's a must watch i think, regarding palestine. it points the finger squarely at the united states.)

the wretched of the earth, franz fanon. fanon is really well known in the decolonization sphere because he writes about it in a very succinct and clear way. to him, decolonization can never occur peacefully, and i think that's a really important key lesson. he also talks about how colonizers don't just take land, they reframe ideas, they take language, art, thoughts.

the battle of algiers, 1966. this is a fascinating film, it's sort of a documentary, they got the actual people to play their parts. it describes and interviews the main individuals involved in the fight for independence within Algiers. i think understanding how a nation can gain independence over its colonial forces is really important in the grand scheme of decolonialism.

unthinking eurocentrism. if you can get your hands on it, i love this text. it's so poignant and it lays everything out so clearly and it really shows how we center our worlds around eurocentrism and westernism.
