Ryuichi Sakamoto, David Byrne and Cong Su at the 1988 Oscars, where they won a Best Original Score Academy Award for their work on The Last Emperor.

Models that we don’t see, or that have stopped working, or that very rarely make an appearance and are slept on, that could still be working on a regular basis, but people rather give attention to mediocre white models, so they just end up fading and being forgotten about.  Kinée Diouf, Yasmin Warsame, Ubah Hassan, Akuol de Mabior, Lakshmi Menon, Ataui Deng, Jeneil Williams, Betty Adewole and Ajuma Nasenyana. They are only a few, there are more I could add.

Behind every strong girl, there is a caring mother.

Teresa Graves as Vampira (1974)

[…] the Sheridan Square piece rejects a conventional ‘political’ roll-call of heroic achievements, and presents history in a far more complex way, out of chronological order, melding different types of events from the murder of gay San Francisco politician Harvey Milk to the formation of communitybased organizations in response to HIV/AIDS. History is thus specifically not presented as a seamless progressive narrative, expressing some supposedly unified historical force or will. Rather, events and institutions coexist, as in memory, in no particular order or sequence beyond that of our own active interpretive making. The ‘private’ defiantly invades ‘public’ space. (x)
