The point of education
is to make you
more human.

It’s
Super.
DUPER.
Abstract.

And very Wwwwishhhhhy
Wwwwwashhhhhy,

but I think it is ‘meaningful’
nonetheless

The point of education might be to make you more human,
yet we live in a world
where education systems are
creating markets for global elites
to continue consuming
the planet's resources.

To create the illusion
that we're all deeply
un-happy
un-less we all have
this (or that)

Capitalism plants
seeds of dissatisfaction
into young minds
and schools teach them to buy
into consumerism

Outer society be like, ‘What cars do you have?’
‘Where do you live? Who do you know?’
As if education is supposed
to make you

Happier?

When the Actual Point of Education is
to make you

Frustrated!

(and to think and have interesting conversations)

Happiness
is a fortunate by-product
that happens
(– sometimes –)
when you make a Break / Through
a ‘human’ connection.

But like…
it's NOT the point

Within fields of education,
We're focused on measuring things,
like learning outcomes, profitability,
the progress that people make, yet

How do you measure your humanity?

For me, this crisis is about human life;
and the valuation of human life;
and the depth and experience of human life,
And which Human Beings get to count as

~ Being Human ~

Right now, the people who are 'human'
are those on the ‘winning’ side
of profit seeking. Which tends to be…

(surprise…)

WHITE GUYS

* And I despair *

A future utopia would need to
reconfigure what it means
to be human...

For me, this involves,
the abolition of
whiteness as a thing

When I imagine my hopes for 2050,
I envision a world in which whiteness
no longer operates as a
Death Seeking Cult

How to organize education with this utopia in mind?

By accounting for alter/native knowledges
By understanding the nature of our Bodily Being
By trying to be speculative and coming up with a new vocabulary
for a world that isn't defined by the racial capitalist logic of

who's human
and who's not

What does that mean for a university?

I don't really know…
Maybe it means that
these places need to crumble…

Maybe it does mean they need to just that?
Maybe it means

exactly

THAT.
