A lot of interesting bits in this article, but one sentence inparticular has really been rattling around the brain this week: ~ ~ “How do we navigate empathy when the structures meant to ‘care’ for us are breaking or nonexistent?” ~ ~‘If I followed me, I would mute myself’: confessions of a former pandemic shamerwww.theguardian.comI yearned for the partiers, the people posting as the virus raged, to be publicly shamed. But everyone is processing this differently, and I can’t change that

In 1981 England when Black communities rose up in confrontation with the police against a backdrop of racism, lack of employment, and economic recession, the government’s official response was an inquiry and report by Lord Scarman. The enquiry spoke to various people connected to the uprisings – but it was clear that Black voices were very absent, or dismissed. As such, the final report claimed that “institutional racism” simply did not exist, and there should be additional “hard” and “soft” policing in affected areas to prevent further “serious disorder”.

Brussels! From 24 March #AMileinMyShoes will be at Villa Empain – Fondation Boghossian as part of their #PortraitOfALady exhibition.

And look – quite frankly the building is ridiculous. There is a pool. And a lot of marble. Our shelves of shoes will be next to works by Matisse and Cindy Sherman and Picasso. It’s all a bit ridiculous and we’re really looking forward to it. Free entry on first Wednesdays of the month, late nights with …
