The Oppressionists
By Jayne Cortez
Art
what do the art
suppressors
care about art
they jump on bandwagons
wallow in press clips
& stink up the planet
with their
pornographic oppression
Art
what do they care about art
they go from being
contemporary baby kissers to
old time corrupt politicians
to self-appointed censorship clerks
who won't support art
but will support war
poverty
lung cancer
racism
colonialism
and toxic sludge
that's their morality
that's their religious conviction
that's their protection of the public
& contribution to family entertainment
what do they care about art

Get it while it's hot! @jcljules profiles 'Last Day in Lagos' photographer @marilyn.nance in this week's @newyorkermag⁠ ⁠ "In January, 1977, while most Americans were busy watching 'Roots,' 17,000 people convened in Lagos, Nigeria, for the Second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture (#festac). A monthlong extravaganza that featured delegations from more than 50 countries, it has been described as the most important Black cultural event of the twentieth century—the high-water mark of a pan-African spirit unmatched before or since. There were concerts and colloquia, film screenings, art shows, and even a regatta. Wole Soyinka lectured, Miriam Makeba sang, and Jayne Cortez denounced global capitalism in verse. Nigeria’s oil boom financed the construction of a national stadium and a dedicated festival village, where guests from across the continent and its diaspora formed lasting bonds. For Marilyn Nance, then a 23-year-old photographer from Brooklyn, it was an opportunity to connect with her roots that was infinitely more exciting than the travails of Kunta Kinte. 'festac was the Olympics, plus a Biennial, plus Woodstock,' she told an interviewer in a new book. 'People have positioned it as science fiction, but it really did happen.'"⁠ ⁠ Also: "Nance’s photography scrambles the nameless and the notable, mirroring the spirit of a festival that leveled boundaries even as it celebrated difference."⁠ ⁠ Read the full profile via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ 'Last Day in Lagos' is published by @cara_the_org ⁠ ⁠ ⁠Edited by Oluremi C. Onabanjo. Foreword by Julie Mehretu. Text by Antawan I. Byrd, Uchenna Ikonne, Tsitsi Ella Jaji. Afterword by Marilyn Nance. Bibliography by Zakiya Collier, Chisom Ilogu.⁠ ⁠ #marilynnancephotoarchive #marilynnance #lastdayinlagos @festac77archive @oluremi.onabanjo @fourthwall_books⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CkQyHYHuUq4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Indelible by Jayne Cortez
Listen i have a complaint to make
my lips are covered
with thumb prints
insomnia sips me
the volume of isolation
is up to my thyroid
and i won't disappear
can you help me

Randolph Denard Ornette Coleman (March 9, 1930 – June 11, 2015) was a jazz saxophonist, violinist, trumpeter, and composer known as a principal founder of the free jazz genre, a term derived from his 1960 album Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation. His pioneering performances often abandoned the chordal and harmony-based structure found in bebop, instead emphasizing a jarring and avant-garde approach to improvisation.
Born in Fort Worth, he began his musical career playing in local R&B and bebop groups and formed his group in Los Angeles featuring members such as Ed Blackwell, Don Cherry, Charlie Haden, and Billy Higgins. In 1959, he released the controversial album The Shape of Jazz to Come and began a long residency at the Five Spot Jazz Club in New York City. His 1960 album Free Jazz would profoundly influence the direction of jazz in that decade. Beginning in the mid-1970s, he formed the group Prime Time and explored funk and his concept of Harmolodic music.
His “Broadway Blues” and “Lonely Woman” became genre standards and are cited as important early works in free jazz. His album Sound Grammar received the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Music. AllMusic called him “one of the most important (and controversial) innovators of the jazz avant-garde”.
He married poet Jayne Cortez (1954-1964). They had one son, Denardo. In September 2006 he released a live album titled Sound Grammar with his son and two bassists. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
