Dear Friends,

This solo minisode is an off the cuff expression of hope, grief and determination. It's an attempt to articulate and square up to this seminal moment in American history, from the perspective of my own eyes. 

Tonight will be the 7th evening of nationwide demonstrations and rebellion against the police murder of George Floyd, the police murder of Breona Taylor, and police brutality towards Black people and people of Color in general.

I live just a few blocks from the Capital building and downtown Phoenix, which is now a highly militarized police green zone: a spasm of red and blue flashing lights. Unmarked black SUV's idle in parking lots on every street corner along 7th Ave between Van Buren and Washington St. Half a dozen helicopters ceaselessly circle the area. Surveillance drones outnumber birds. (Which, admittedly, has more to do with domestic cats than anything else, but I digress.)

Email the pod at barbarian.noetics@gmail.com if you'd like to join the demonstrations downtown, or if you'd like to learn more about organizing and mobilizing in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement in Arizona.

Stay safe, be smart, be strategic, be calm.

One Love,

Conan
