I love the journalism about MOVE which spreads the story about what they experienced and everyone else on Osage in 85’. But it’s just this constant framing about it being “rare” history which I think is more caught up in itself / discovery / posturing / than being about MOVE.

And that they still here. Still lifting up the names of their lost. Still fighting. Still organizing. Still making demands at the intersection of race, capitalism, prisons, nature, how we treat animals, etc. How to not reduce MOVE to the spectacle of extreme state violence.

It’s something about that way we have consumed the story, which privileges the aesthetics of media photography and documentary production value that just doesn’t add up for me. But also, I guess I’ve had an education being in Philly for a while. Anyway, it’s late.

I really do hope that WURD puts out their broadcast from today in its entirety, we talking about hours of content that explores not only the incident, but all matters of questions about present reckoning and it’s limits. To the point of even questioning what “justice” is...

Which extends to include today’s struggles to witness and struggle through the deaths of #AhmaudArbrey and #BreonnaTaylor. It’s all there, for us to imagine beyond the current injustice system, but an abolitionist approach that believes in “changed behavior.” It’s intertwined.
