i have just found out about him and i have two finals tomorrow but im just so enthralled with mr bryn jones. Like what was wrong with Muslimgauze? What was right with him? why was a mediocore white man who was middle class and living with his fam in england producing so intensively for Islamic and Muslim struggles despite never reverting? he produced with the little amount of money he made off his albums. he signed so many labels and put so much out its hard to truly understand his production and music, or the progression of his mental state. why did he have an album named muhammad ali jinnah? what parallel did he see between karachi and algiers? in a time period where the palestinian cause did not matter to most westerners, and h*um*us was just a food, why did he create so extensively when his music was not even gaining traction? why was he so opposed to zionism when it wasn't popular in his region? he was described as a man who had little time or care for things besides his interests. why was a man who had never left his home in england so outspoken for the barbaric acts committed against african, arab and southasian mainly Islamic countries? after malcolm x this is a man i would like to meet. was he simply provocative and a fetish loving orientalist? or was there something else behind his themes and concepts?

Algiers Point, New Orleans
Tumblr media
Algiers Point is a historic neighborhood across the Mississippi River. It can be reached by taking a short ferry ride over from the Canal Street Ferry Terminal or driving across the Crescent City Connection. It’s the second oldest neighborhood in New Orleans, first settled in 1719. It’s much quieter, cleaner, and safer.
I walked from the ferry terminal next to the levee, past beautiful old homes and some newer homes.
Algiers has traditionally been a popular spot for jazz musicians to live. There’s a statue of a jazz musician by the ferry building that marks the Jazz Walk of Fame. I walked by a house where a trumpet player lived.
Walking along the levee was peaceful. You can see the boats, Jackson Square, the Riverfront…
I didn’t see a lot of services but I saw a pub and a food market. I also passed by the courthouse and read about how Algiers was often the site that most enslaved people were put on shore to be sold to the surrounding areas.
4.5 out of 5 stars
