Every year white people add 100 years to how long ago slavery was. I’ve heard educated white people say, ‘slavery was 400 years ago.’ No it very wasn’t. It was 140 years ago…that’s two 70-year-old ladies living and dying back to back. That’s how recently you could buy a guy.

Sylvester Magee, the (probable) last American born into slavery died in 1971.

The last living child of former American slaves, Mississippi Winn, died in 2010.

Slavery in the territory that is now the United States lasted more than 330 years. We will be 330 years removed from slavery in the year 2195.

Shelley Jackson’s Skin project, a 2095-word story published exclusively in tattoos, one word each on as many willing volunteers, so it can never be read in its proper order, but just exists, pulsing, out in the world at all times.

Kyle Thompson - Graveyard Girls (2013)

I’ve been in Tennessee with my friend Marissa Bolen. Yesterday we planned a huge shoot which involved building a dam, and covering models with flour and milky water. It was a group effort. You can see her shots here, you should follow her!

Canadian Tire

whatsdifferentincanada:

Canadian Tire is what would happen if Wal-Mart’s Auto section took steroids, then combined with parts of Home Depot and the household goods section at Target. It has just about everything related to cars, camping, and other “down n dirty”-type stuff, and it is an essential stop before a long road trip. Canadian Tire issues loyalty points in the form of “Canadian Tire Money.” Everybody’s heard rumors of bars that accept it - I would like to know where you can do this!

theres a musician i know who paid for all the recording costs for his last album with canadian tire money
