Brighton & Hove News, 28 July 2023:

'A Brighton family have literally stopped traffic with a new mural inspired by a sari pattern on their new home.

Poppy Jaman and Jaan Madan moved to Southampton Street in Hanover in January, and immediately knew they wanted to make a splash when decorating the outside.

She said: “One of the reasons we wanted to move to the centre of Brighton is that it’s so colourful.

“We were inspired by murals in Washington where there’s a whole area where there’s murals which have been created out of adversity.

“That inspired the idea of making a statement with our home. I wanted to not just paint something that I love. If you just love something that’s enough, but I also wanted to say here’s a bit of my identity.

“I collect saris and Jamdani is a signature saris of Bangladesh. It’s got a colonial past to it.

📷 X

The mural is inspired by the Jamdani weave saree, the signature saree of Dhaka, Bangladesh, which dates back at least as far back as 300BC.

Between the 16th and 19th centuries, Jamdani fabric – so fine it was known as ‘woven air’ – was one of the most highly coveted commodities in Mughal courts and further afield. However, by the mid-19th century, Jamdani had become almost extinct.

Poppy has written more about her relationship with the Jamdani design and its colonial history here.'

Since pride month is near the end I wanted to say some things to my queer siblings. This is important so please pay attention:

Write and draw YOUR own goddamn story. Corporations only care about profits so they are never gonna give us the proper representation that we deserve and straight people have their own fucking struggles, they don’t have time for us. You can do it professionally or as a hobby but please do it if you have the gift.

Read more books based on leftist theories. It will help you understand why the world is fucked up and how we can fix it.

Join left-wing political groups or parties. Despite what you have been told politics is life. Do you really want others to decide important things for you? Be political.

Donate to left-wing organizations, and join and support your local protest.

Learn to outlive your enemies. Just living a happy life and helping others to better theirs is a revolution, never forget that.

Know that if someone is intolerant to some groups they are also intolerant to others and obviously not your friends.

Remember that you might lose some of your so-called friends when you are trying to be your best and authentic self but you are gonna gain more true friends who will give up their lives to save yours.

We need to show the world that we are not what the reactionaries made us to be. We need visibility and it's our greatest weapon against bigotry, discrimination, and harassment.

Hiding isn’t gonna solve our problem. Running away from fascists is the same as being dead. Stand and fight as much as you can. Happy pride from Bangladesh.

By the way, if you ever come to Bangladesh please meet with me, I would love to host you.

শহুরে রাস্তা তোমারি হয়ে হয়ে গেল

যে গলিতেই যাই, ভাবি তুমি সাথে থাকলে কেমন হতো!

শীত গড়িয়ে গরমের যে আদর

তার বিরক্তিও দেখা ছিল একটু বাকি

তোমার আমার জীবনকাল একসাথে কাটলেই পারতো বাকি।

যাক,

দুঃখের দীর্ঘশ্বাস তো অনেক দূর যায়,

তোমার ভাল থাকা, সে তো আমি বিনাই হয়।

কোন এক রাস্তায় আবার দেখা হবে,

হয়তো।

রাস্তা আমাদের রেখে আর দূরে যাবে না,

হয়তো।

দুপুর ১:৫০,

ঢাকা।
